Probably they want to wait to announce anyone "responsible" as they haven't quite figured out what really happened and who really was responsible. So before letting media guess who it was (and then Twitter or whatever else shittyverse to make everything even worse), they wanna make sure any claims are correct.

Don’t the operators of the Suez require their own capitans, familiar with the channel, to board a vessel and navigate the channel. Similar to Harbor capitans/Harbormasters.

I think even on this site there was a link documenting the crazy amount of bribery needed to easily transit.

You have to bring pilots on board, and their performance will surely be part of the investigation, but fundamentally the ship is still run by its captain and crew.
