On point 6, the reporter must be unaware that the BEA are compelled to be "neutral" by their own remit. Like other investigative agencies, they can recommend remedies but cannot enforce. And as with other "civil service" agencies like the UK AAIB (but unlike the US NTSB), their remit forbids them from apportioning specific responsibility.
