To expand on this a little: long before a wing stops working from ice, it becomes a different wing with different aerodynamic characteristics, like stall angle and critical mach number. This is of course just speculation at this point, but among informed professionals I’ve heard a lot of talk about a mach tuck, which is probably not recoverable, even without the possible loss of the horizontal stabilizer.

No, it doesn’t seem like that at all. It seems like a normal distribution of labour in a cockpit and good CRM. If you don’t know anything about a subject you are allowed to keep your mouth shut and not add to all the pointless speculating around a tragedy.
