I don’t think SpaceX has confirmed that.

There was asymmetric thrust most of the flight because of so many engines out on one side. You could see the rocket sliding somewhat sideways because of it.

Yeah. This booster is designed so that a few rockets can fail and it will still function. However, so many on one side failing, led to other issues. Apparently, the system that controls rockets and compensates if some rockets fail got cooked. That same system was responsible for blowing the first stage separation bolts. That’s why the booster did not separate.

Oh wait. You were answering the post that I had shared NASA’s diagnositics. So I repeated myself. SORRY.
