I think pilots get off too easily sometimes.
If this hull loss were proven to be nothing but pilot error (speculatively , but not totally outside the realm of possibility) how is it very different from causing a road accident while texting or speeding or by exceeding work-hours etc.?
Most such mundane road offences, if resulting in fatalities, are dealt with quite seriously these days by prosecutors.
