"The country's Transportation Ministry said the black box flight recorder recovered from the crash site was missing key pieces and authorities were reviewing how to extract its data."

Watching that video again they appear to land more than half way down the runway, in fact it looks like they finally "land" at the touch down markers at the other end of the runway giving them around 1500 feet.
Skill level and experience has deteriorate in the cockpit over the past 5 years with those hated boomers finally hanging up the wings.
I believe more accidents like this will happen and It will be worse in developing nations especially with low cost carriers in those areas.
I'm chocking this one up to pilot incompetence.

How do you catastrophically lose that much electrical power on a 737? Could an uncontained fan blade loss from a birdstrike go through the avionics bay or main electrical buses?

Both engines were shut down when the ADS-B and data recorders went offline. We know that from the electrical diagram.
We can suspect some pilot involvement in that, but we will never know for sure, now.
One Internet personality thinks they may have panicked and pulled both fire bottles, but that's just a guess. One can only suspect fast hands in the cockpit.

It blows my mind that a brand new airliner doesn’t have any backup power. Are they grandfathered into 1962 FARs when they certify new 737 models or what?

I’m no engineer but so many things about that airplane seem aggressively half assed by modern standards.
