In the case of the USS Vincennes the aircraft was warned numerous times to change course. All warnings were disregarded.

The Ukrainian aircraft was shot down minutes after leaving the Tehran airport. I doubt any warning was given, and even less time for the aircraft to react if any warning was issued.

USS Vincennes was also in an active firefight with Iranian speed boats.

High speed, high pressure environment. Add a flyby of a commercial plane with communication problems and you’ve got a disaster on your hands.
