I keep going back to that. There are no doubt tapes of the ATC executing their emergency procedures once the transponder was turned-off and comms where lost.

The controllers would have awakened everyone in their chain of command and no doubt every controlling agency along and around the intended route of flight.

I guarantee every controller on earth has a emergency procedures binder an arms length away for just this exact scenario.

It won't explain the why of this event, but it will help with the rest: What was done by the air traffic control organization?
