It has nothing to do with "believing" what could possibly happen. It did happen, which means from an engineering perspective, the design failed.

That is the whole point of safely as part of any design. You don't design it to fail, but put in measures in case it does. And you always over engineer, just in case you were wrong. I find this death completely inexcusable.
