This definitely falls within the definition of an accident.
As said earlier, while the ATSB have access to the CVR and QAR/FDR, that's not the whole story. All that tells is the mechanics of what happened on the night. And yes - I'm sure the crew did make errors.
The ATSB will be hamstrung in getting to the root cause, because our beloved employer (Emirates aka Dubai Inc.) will never release any data on systemic, training or management issues that actually led to the final "piece" in the chain of events.
The crew have been made the scapegoats yet again. Crew retraining, and acceptance by Emirates of corporate responsibility would have been a far more mature approach here.
AAR, TCAS and ED should fall on their swords.
