To me, what really makes this whole scenario more and more unlikely... :
In the supposedly chaotic environment, with alarms blaring, would the
non-expert
non-Airbus personnel doing the engine test:
1) immediately realise what the alarm was... ?
2) instantly know which CB to pull to silence it... ?
I personally admit to a sneaky liking for the scenario as the ultimate SNAFU, but I don't really believe it happened that way.
