This is exactly what I've been working on with our display pilots work
group. We're brainstorming questions like, "What causes a highly
trained
demonstration pilot who knows his airplane, knows his skills, knows
the
show site, knows the regulations, knows his personal limitations, has
attended the show safety meeting, is fully aware of the density
altitude
and temperature at the show site, commit to a high gate inverted down
line pull that is too low to allow recovery.
It "ain't" easy, but we are working hard to find answers to questions
like these. There isn't any magic bullet solution to these issues.

No, there isn't. you're obviously thinking of that Hurricane in the UK.
Are there any items that they think may have contributed? altimeter
setting? I never went in for field zero or QFE, but a lot of low level
guys do, as well as glider pilots. It's commonplace in the UK.
I suppose that it does give a you a quick no-math gate, though.
