I think you may be closest to correct.
We now know it’s a German guy, no question. Too bad for the jihadi terrorism alarmists.
Not to say he COULDN’T be Moslem, without apparent name change, but doubtful.
Maybe 1 of those German NAZIs?
Or maybe he is just one sicko who didn’t care how many people he took out while committing suicide.
There is the possibility he simply had an “event” that knocked him out, despite what bit we hear about “normal breathing”.
The cockpit door switch was deliberately set to lock out the other pilot, so his access code would not be able to open the door. It is set to “Norm” for the flight, for just that kind of scenario, where there is a medical emergency. I don’t know how he would manage to do that, if he were knocked out.
This was deliberate, whether an “act of terror”, or a pilot committing suicide- murder-suicide, with my guess that the authorities already possess some sort of suicide note or message.
Is the two-person cockpit rule only a FAA reg, or is it international as well?
“Too bad for the jihadi terrorism alarmists.”
You; nor anyone else; has any firm information on this person yet.
Waiting to get more detail on his background is the best course.

It’s perplexing alright at this point. It boggles the mind.
