One report said the pilot said the rudder jammed.
So, wondering if the rudder boost system malfunctioned right at rotation, what would happen? A pilot should be able to overpower the boost with leg muscle, but, it might be hard to get it done quick enough right at V1.
All speculation, it'll be interesting to see if they can make any real determinations.
