Somewhere along the descent from, let’s say around 8.000’, (Probably not yet really that task saturated...)
initially before, but especially starting and during the 'cacophony' parts,
there may have been a slight chance that at some moment,
any of those tiny little extra, visualised clues from pointer needles would have been noticed by either pilot.

Some simple needle pointers overriding complex 'sophisticated stuff', 'cacophony' (You started that...) and the subsequent 'hectics'...

Sooner or later possibly (re-)creating some (more, if any…)
situational awareness for either pilot (We don’t know who was (initially) PF/PM),
maybe, eventually even taking corrective action at last,
ultimately saving the day and many innocent lives...

After that getting back to business as usual,
and others never knowing whatever actually, really had happened…

But then again…
Here we sadly most probably will... Eventually…
Not going for the obvious... We're all trying to learn, don't we...?
