    From the SpaceX overlay graphic, it seems like a number of engines went out shortly after the relight for the boostback burn, around T+02:53. Asymmetric thrust and loss of control might have triggered the FTS.

      Good catch. I was so focused on Starship and it’s engines. I guess the question now is whether it was because of the engines or or tank pressure?
