The fact that some experienced people all mentioned the nose high

If it had truly STALLED there would have been a far nastier mess. The
pilot was just 'stetching' the glide.


why did it do this if under perfect control? This to
me implies that it was not just the engines.


The engines didn't fail. There's clear evidence at least one was
turning when it landed. They 'failed' to respond to a call for power.
That's where the 'failure' is and it looks likely to be electronic to
me (or some bizarre fuel quality related issue).


Nope
