What could possibly explain neither ship sounding pre-collision alarms? Iirc most of the 17 who died were in their cabins, and two heros died while pulling sailors out of their smashed cabins.

Drugs, dead tired, not focusing on what the watch members were supposed to be doing and apparently one ship going too fast in the sea lanes.
