I’m assuming Prigozhin got arrogant and thought Putin wouldn’t touch him. And Putin decided that the proximity warhead on an S-200 missile blowing an aircraft apart wasn’t technically “touching”.
I’ll admit, I’ve not been following the story closely. So, I’ll take your word on the lack of a missile. But ya, I’d still bet on this being Putin eliminating an enemy in some way.

Intelligence has confirmed it wasn’t a missile strike, from my understanding. Seems like an engine exploded, probably tampering.

Oh, of course it wasn’t an accident
I think sabotage pretty much covers the “when cared for properly/failsafe” thing, though.

Oh I didn’t mean sabotage as in “I didn’t QA the abradable shroud installation correctly, oops.”
I meant like “Nice, this fat brick of C-4 fits perfectly next to the generator compartment.”
