There is an alarm on dual inputs.

Except when there's not ... In this case, it was superseded by "more pressing" alarms, namely "pull up"/"you're too low".
Yeah, that's a good point though, of course in most situations it is more urgent so this choice makes sense. BUT in this case not being aware of the dual input made the GPWS worse. So in this paricular case it was not.

Personally I would do a different type of alarm for dual input, like a big red light somewhere. Or just not allowing dual input somehow (always requiring the use of the takeover button).
