cutting corners regarding maintenance has ended up fatally way too many times honestly
however my theory, the captain said ''no thrust, no power'' what if the pitot tube on the captain's side of the plane was blocked, and gave out faulty warnings, they accidentally pushed engine power to maximum and that might've damaged the engine, hence the loud bang what the survivor said he heard
also idk what protocols at Air India are like when it comes to emergency situations, who of the pilots has the final say
the first officer was highly trained in emergency situations, however due to his inexperience, it could be that he would not go against his more experienced captain (whom was also a instructor, and a very respected captain at the airline too)
so either blocked pitot tube (birgenair all over again) or fatigue, exhaustion
