Sounds like a bit of inside information.
The official report is due in August according to the last statements by the authorities on the subject.

All the weather tap dancing in the last video presentation was true as far as it went, but probably not relevant to the accident.

So we can perhaps conclude that not only are pilots not getting enough stick time, but the maintainers (engineers in Brit-speak) are losing their troubleshooting skills with the modern aircraft. If a box change doesn't fix the problem, many don't know what to do next.
