Yes, ChristiaanJ, and No.
Who is the Attorney? You mention Certs as though they are culpable in and of themselves for the Thales failures. Thales had the bad rep, certs or no. You parse like a lawyer.
Since no requirement existed for surpassing the certs, (Goodrich, but arguably), Thales gets a pass? They were id'ed as problematic, but they met cert, so they can remain until the next fatal?
Unknown Fuel Characteristics caused a T7 Hull Loss? NO. Neither did the certs cause 447 to extinguish. Poor position, find another.
