Specualtion that they pulled flaps up instead of gear up and basically didn't have enough lift so it looks like a gentle stall right into a built up area.

Looks to be flaps up, slats/ nose flaps down and gear down which is very odd.

Well your water leaks comment is timely, as FAA has issue an AD dated 16 June 25, with water leak AD's and inspections going back approximately 4 years.

I think that's the video I saw.

"and we now know a 787 engine will not keep running with loss of electrical power, as pre-FADEC engines were capable of doing"

Where did this get stated or confirmed?

I'm not saying you're wrong, just I haven't seen anything that states this with any certainty.
