Yeah this seems likely. You could see from the altitude and speedometer (can't think of better word for it rn) that the rocket slowed down hovering for a short moment before accelerating again and falling into water.

Anyways, I'd be much more interested for spacex to release info on what wasn't as successful.

They're probably still poring over the data. Telemetry from the temperature sensors, the feeds from the internal cameras, data from the booster and why two of its engines failed and so on. Most likely also data on what and how many TPS tiles S29 lost on the way down, I doubt the video feeds were their only way of checking those All in all, it's gotta be terabytes of data to sort through and analyze
