Captain Carbaugh, Boeing chief pilot, "The fuel pumps had been cavitating not long before impact, perhaps as a result of a fuel restriction or low temperature...etc." So Boeing places cavitation in a frame well within one incorporating cause. It is consistent with starvation or diminished flow of Fuel. It also places focus on Roller, not that that was anyone's intent.
