I wonder if anyone has addressed the "convenience" factor, and
if it might have been a player. I looked at the report and
screen grab pictures, so given the headwind and enormous size
of the airfield, it should have appeared to have been a "no
brainer" to just pull the dive brakes and land straight ahead.

ASW 24 has weakest airbrakes of pretty much any standard class made after 70's. You might easily get used to doing shallow angle finals, and suddenly seeing runway end at steep angle could cause reaction to do a 360 turn. Just speculating, of course.
