\\\'\\\'Carpathia\\\'\\\' had to slow down when she reached the iceberg field in order to --surprise surprise-- \\\'\\\'dodge the icebergs\\\'\\\'. That would account for the \\\"inconsistencies\\\".

Also, there\\\'s no need for a compromise. I don\\\'t care how much of a \\\'\\\'Titanic\\\'\\\' buff you are, you clearly don\\\'t know squat about external combustion engines (i.e. steamboats\\\' engines). So stop trying to say that this is impossible. It\\\'s totally possible. The only surprising thing is that \\\'\\\'Carpathia\\\'\\\'[=\\\'s=] captain gave the order to go 110% on the engines, and the engineer followed through with it. if the engine had jammed in any way, \\\'\\\'Carpathia\\\'\\\' would have had a hole in its hull equal to the \\\'\\\'Titanic\\\'\\\'[=\\\'s=].
