From what I have read, a major source of error is lack of sleep. With 4 hours of sleep, it doesn’t matter what the UI/X is...

UI/UX does matter, actually, especially on 4 hours of sleep. It is much easier to get confused with a complex interface on less sleep than more.
I don't disagree, but reading the following paragraph: "The report provides a detailed overview of the actions that led to the collision: when crew members tried to split throttle and steering control between consoles, they lost control of the ship, putting it into the path of the tanker." you're hard pressed to blame either lack of sleep or touch interfaces. It's quite obvious in this case there's an extreme lack of QA, no?
