What of the Captain's last-minute decision to opt for a MAX thrust takeoff in response to the LLWS advisories instead of the recommended reduced-thrust takeoff being the primary event that triggered the entire sequence? The Captain seemed very concerned about the potential flaps overspeed condition -- it was mentioned a couple of times. This concern likely prompted the Captain's manual intervention to reduce power and mitigate the risk of an overspeed.
