DEI didn’t cause this. The government shutdown didn’t cause this.
So, it was women drivers?

Check the rims on the planes.

And the wing was not completely torn off as indicated in OP story.

Aviation is literally the epitome of a meritocracy. Rigorous training for both pilots and ATC. Multiple universal certs that are NOT easy.
The problem is traffic volumes and a traffic control system stuck in the 80’s.

Dude they've played this one so many times and you know that its wrong. They didn't fire hundreds of tower traffic directors. They fired a bunch of recent hires for menial positions.
Zero effect.

It's well known that jets can fly with one engine. Do they really need that second wing?

No dashcam I guess.

Apparently the departing plane was told to hold short of the intersection and did not listen

Correct.
LaGuardia is 19.6 feet ASL.
That 10 feet was all the difference.

Maybe I'm wrong. But aren't ground crews supposed to wing walk planes when going to/from gate?

So your explanation for the sixfold increase in female pilots of 10-15 years is just that they were all of a sudden rising to the top?
Despite being overall VERY safe, the vast majority of the prominent incidents in commercial aviation in the past years have been with women at the helm.
