We don't know who is taking what blame. The report was supposed to be with CAA today, the Secretary of State said it would be published later in the week. Until that runs its course we have no idea what happened or how much blame is to be apportioned.
Every software fault is inevitable we just don't know why this one played out with the impact it did. I expect every system to fail sooner or later, I wouldn't expect the failure of a system in the Flight Data thread to take so long to fix or have that impact so I'm waiting for the report to see why it did.
