IMO, we will find that the plane will be seriously overload with Li Batteries.

Not illegal if the new safety guide lines were followed. But packed wrong they can generate enough heat to burn holes in the frame and puff no longer pressurized.

I think the pilots started to head for one airport after an initial emergency, there was another emergency, so they set another heading and then went to try to stop an electrical fire or some other "save the aircraft" issue, and they died and the plane continued on that last heading.

They were up in the air for hours after they diverted from scheduled path. No call. No nothing.

I'm not sure how the wiring harness is routed and if it takes many routes getting from one place to the other but that could explain why the systems seemed to be turned off too
