Technically, in the cavitation incident described it is at the Outlet of the HP where the Pressure is zero. The HP is Upstream of the FOHE, so the FOHE had exactly what to do with the Fuel Starvation ? This is why the results have been portrayed as possibly (sic) indicating upstream (of the HP) blockage.
The lack of a positive conclusion should not connote mystery, it should infer a manufacturing of escape scenarios for the Report. It also allows for leaving things the way they are (but for AD), at least in public disclosure.

Not wrong. I haven't stated I concur with NTSB, I merely stated the conclusion of the investigation. I have some reservations about the 'Explosion' of the tank. The Japanese guy who croaked in the 'seat bomb plot' was sitting in a seat that was behind (in front of?) the center tank, a blunder by the one who planted the downward exploding charge.
