As Picard said, it is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose.

Possibly. It was never said to be unsinkable, that was a myth. Certainly any ship can be sunk by poor seamanship or adverse circumstances.

As with much of titanic lore, the myth of it being a myth is… a myth. Harland & Wolff publicity claimed it to be so, and this then made its way into the pages of the trade journal The Shipbuilder in 1911.
