Seems pretty clear to me, the crew thought they were going for full length, but then saw T1 and mistook it for taxiway T1
Jolly good, that's another one fixed, then.

As others have suggested, there may be lots of contributors to this one, some of them classics. If the final report is done well, it could be useful to learn from.

But with the pressure vessel breached and approach lights damaged, I'm puzzled why the NTSB doesn't appear to be investigating or why it doesn't seem to appear in the FAA incident database. Did I see an earlier comment along these lines that has now disappeared, or was it another event?
The airline is the jewel in the Emirate's crown. Their establishment has very deep pockets and very compelling influence in the corridors of power in the so called paragon of democracy!
