If you see these three together, it becomes easy to deduce that based on point 2, switch was not human induced as the actions required take more than a second. Next the third point, advisory was for this exact scenario which played out, though rare but still it shouldn't have been just an advisory, but more than that.
IMO that looks like a spot that would be pretty difficult to hit accidentally even if the ward failed. You'd have to push them down and the throttles are in the way.
Doesn't mean the switch couldn't have failed in some other way- eg the switch got stuck on the ward but was still able to activate with a half-throw, and spring pressure pushed it back into off during a bump. But switches generally only activate when fully thrown, and failing suddenly at the exact same time is not really what you would expect.

A fist-sized powerful magnet that's next to impossible to straight-up pull out of ANYTHING. You need to slide it carefully and NOT let your fingers get in between it and anything else.
Now imagine a magnet that's infinitely more powerful than that.
The difference is the size. Even a large magnet only hits that 20g force over an inch or two. An MRI pulls at that force over a full foot or more; equivalent to dropping the object from 20'+. Worse, the MRI starts pulling at 5 or 10 feet away. Objects can experience a tremendous amount of uncontrolled acceleration in fractions of a second.
It's not like a black hole- unless you are trapped under something very large, the crushing force is substantial but not incredible. In fact inside the tube the gradient is actually smaller than the entrance of the tube- you are pulled in strongly, but once inside the tube you are pressed against the wall somewhat less forcefully. Instead it's like an invisible waterfall, and any metal will be swept away in it, fast enough to put holes in you.
