> It's a single data point / anecdote.

A single data point is still a data point.




And a very relevant one, in this case: trim runaway with pilots not understanding it's a runaway. The visiting pilot does recognise the situation and restores expected flight dynamics. What went wrong, why did not two pilots realise something that is traditionally a known case and well understood? Because it didn't look like a traditional case.


An irrelevant one in this case. This report needs to find out the technical/training/... reason, not why the other pilot needed a ride. I'm sure they'd have included it if they wanted to recommend having three pilots on every flight.
