I guess they were "winging it".
"Look Charlie, I know it's big and round, but that cargo container just WON'T fit in there"!
Would it be prudent to examine the spar box where the wings are firmly in place? The tolerance for mating a wing to the spar box is measured in microns. An object hitting anything on the wing has the potential to render the wing unsafe for flight. A friend of mine flys 757-200's. He had a similar accident two years ago. His spar box was damaged.
The consequences of flying with a damaged wing can result in a catastrophic incident that can be avoided.
