authority gradient

Trying to read it all, don't think I saw this coming by

How would the (steep) authority gradient impact the sequence of critical events and associated timing?
Wouldn't the sequence of actions + timings be substantially different, depending on the critical mistake being discovered by the:

PIC/PM = instant recovery action (incl. expletives), assessing recovery, .... only then questioning FO's actions
FO = questioning PIC's actions.... assess response for a few seconds (physical/mental state).... only if clearly unsatisfactory, initiate critical recovery actions

For me the 2nd scenario it what matches best with the facts being presented.

Incorrect, " The cockpit area audio and the three audio crew channels are recorded in both the forward and the aft installed EAFR recorders. " So 4 seperate audio channels recorded on the CVR function of the EAFR.

Given the degraded power state at that moment, the only mic powerd by the RISP will be the CAM, thus the only remaining channel being recorded on the CVR of the (forward only) EAFR. Some audio forensics will be needed to identify individual persons' words (in the final moments).
