As someone who often criticizes the soaring related NTSB reports, I found the report rather comprehensive and covers all the details I am aware of as a club member close to the investigation.
To me the cause of the accident is obvious, as well as the lessons.
I am curious what you found missing.
Feel free to email me privately.

Anyone find a link to the final report of the NTSB on Bellanca 8GCBC Scout, N4116Y that crashed in a kiting event? Everyone I find is not working.
Much could be said about this kiting incident, but I won't say anything, as is tradition.
I will say that I want my money back for the last several years where the NTSB literally phoned in garbage investigations like this. There are reams of questions any experienced glider pilot could ask here that aren't answered by the report or the
docket of materials the NTSB collected from the safety of their Zoom Room.
My understanding is that the FAA ignores a substantial number of recommendations made by the NTSB. I was once the Health Physics Lead for a nuclear reactor refueling crew. One of my duties was to escort the OSHA people inside reactor containment so
they could do their inspections. If we added OSHA to the mix of the NTSB and the FAA things would improver immensely. It was impossible to pull the wool over their eyes.
