Is it possilble that both engines were running from the centre tank which actually contained only a little fuel which ran out around V2 ?.
I know very little about the 787 so maybe complete tosh ????

Why are we concentrating on the engine switches .?
What happened before this to cause the engines to run down, resulting in the crew trying the documented procedure of turning the switches off then on to restart ?.

Basically they ran out of time to resolve the problem.

The takeoff run seems to show a normal acceleration to V1.

Yebbut did the physical switches move to off or did the system see them as being off by looking at the wiring ?
How do the recorders monitor the switches ?

Yes Yes YES. The hamster wheel is spinning out of control.
Nothing relevant is going to be added until the investigators release more information.
Please close the discussion until we get authoritative information.
