I would have added some more things that you could have mitigated - like lowering your sail to half mast after the wind increase. Or only using the jib or even switching to engine power.

Which in the context of incident prevention translates into adapting to what is happening and maintaining the safety profile to prevent the incident.

Half mast sale - less force on the mast, more time to react to things when going solo.
