That's how your post read.
May I suggest that if you don't
know, then either don't say or write a clear disclaimer that you are hypothesising. I would wager there are plenty of readers on here who don't know, and reading your missives will give them the wrong ideas, especially since what you wrote above about warnings is largely irrelevant to this incident.

Is this is based on detailed knowledge of the system or just a hypothesis? They didn't look "too far out" to me. I would doubt very much if the EGPWS would have been squawking at them.
