So you're certain that under no circumstances would a F-16 pilot have a mission profile requiring unusually low level or nap of the earth flight? I think you're jumping to conclusions about the pilot hotdogging.
Right - it could be incompetence which then I suppose would be on the system as a whole for not having pilot properly trained. Guess I jumped the gun a bit - apologies.

Lol, or it was the dumbass cessna's fault. I have more confidence in a highly trained fighter pilot than someone who took a few classes for a pilots license.

It will all come out in the Review but pilots do go off flight plan on occasion. I remember it was big news in Baton Rouge in the early 90's when emergency crews responded to a reported large explosion with shattered windows in the Sherwood Forest neighborhood. They couldn't find the source of the blast and later determined that a local guy had just gotten his wings and did a fly over of his parent's house. He pulled pitch hard and nailed it right over their house and went supersonic. The news reported that he got in quite a bit of trouble.
