True, but beyond the technical issues, there are the AF 447 crew and its reactions.
And I understand this is a delicate question. Some experimented pilots have their intimate view but a public forum may not be appropriate to express them.
But pilots on this forum could share their views about how they think they (themselves) could have reacted in a given context, which clues/signals/indicators they would have relied upon, or how they (themselves) could have been deceived, or overwhelmed, by some specific combinations of failures and/or false alarms (instead of presuming what others could have done).
And if the BEA has questions about possible crew reactions in given contexts, there won't be any speculation or reluctance: there will be multiple crews of similar composition & experience formed and tested in simulators under varied hypothesis.
