Indeed!

I haven't looked at any of the press links, but noted that the initial Twitter/X video was posted around 1300BST, which wasn't too long after G-VDIA landed.. I might have missed it above, but has there been any 'official' confirmation yet as to whether the 789 was coming into the gate, or was being pushed back out of it when the collision occurred?

There are some images showing the port wing/engine well over the hatched gate markings, which I assume are no-go areas?
