I do not like speculation about blame this early in a disastder such as this one. As a safety engineer, I would think the NTSB will be called in on this and they will look at the design and the operation and attempt to learn what what wrong. I suspect power was not the only thing, because at this time power would be considered a critical factor, (Needed for GPS, nav, guidance, and helm control). So there would have been back up emergency power, which must also have failed. Maybe a computer was involved and when power was lost, this device lost its recent memory. Maybe needd to be re-booted — unforgivable if if it was.
So we need the engineering team to get busy before we try to guess what they did or did n ot do.

Possible Hindi who loves the anti-western Hindustanian media - might be a source of trouble (and is pro-Russian). But unknown in online info, for the moment.
I am staying with “an accident” waiting to happen.
After September 11, 2001, Maryland debated about building defense structures (reinforced bollards) to protect the bridge, but that plan was set aside because of high cost estimates.
