Understood.

You can always argue that the pilot could have done /this/ differently,
or /that/ differently and the accident could have been avoided.

And that's totally different than knowingly and willfully violating a
limitation or rule, and then suffering the results that the limitation
or rule is designed to prevent.

You still are missing the point. In almost every case that series of
actions somewhere violated a rule. This make the accident not an "act
of God".
