Well, yes, but that's so late in the crash sequence, the loss of hydraulics, just after the aircraft has left the runway at something like 100 knots, that this will have made very little difference to the accident outcome. You can not get very good braking action off an unpaved surface, for one thing.

I think the focus will be on why the aircraft did not rotate at VR. What happened after that seems fairly obvious, finding out that you have an aircraft you can not make fly at 165 knots.
