I have an instructor rating, and in teaching GA I've seen this hundreds of times also from experienced pilots. It's all easy in theory until in practice there is some sun in your eyes, the nose is pointing away from the runway due to wind and something inside needs attention (even more likely in a Cirrus, lots of tools = lots of distractions). Takes all of 10 seconds to be completely through the centerline and if reallt unlucky into the path of another aircraft.

Can't really blame this on the Cirrus pilot alone. They probably made the mistake here, but they were not set up for succes (no navigation available as backup) and ATC had zero safety net (both at the same altitude). So my prediction is that the final report will include recommended changes and not just "pilot error shouldn't fly through final, any student pilot could do that"
