Especially with a large hub at EWR. Maybe it was a post flight or taxi out issue and this report is wrong and they were reacting to an on-field issue.
As always we’ll learn hard lessons taught by the lives of those that were unlucky enough to be there and not us. God bless those lost and their families.
I thought the first report I saw said they were responding to a rejected takeoff rather than an inbound aircraft, haven’t looked since then though
