Any time a complex system fails, smart folks dig into precipitating and root causes while ideological idiots dream of conspiracy.
I've actually seen this is professional contexts, where idiots blamed a series of hardware failures on employee sabotage. Turns out there was a component with a 1-in-10,000,000[^1] failure rate that was failing almost exactly 1-in-10,000,000 times and the distribution of the failures was clustered by pure accident.
[^1]: Or something like that. It was a decade ago.
Either the experts are presenting an incredibly reasonable and almost certainly true description of precipitating causes, or else NOAA, FAA, and everyone who collects their real-time datastreams are all in on a vast conspiracy to falsify data.
