If the kids didn't mutiny, would Picard have been killed when the turbolift fell?

I'm not really clear on why the turbolift would fall in the first place... Is that a gravity plating thing? I guess gravity plating must work without power?
Also Picard knew it was going to fall... are we to infer he'd rather be pancaked than spend another moment with those kids?
I know the writers just think of them as elevators, but why are we generating artificial gravity in a turnolift shaft just so we can overcome it with another generated force?
Kinda related, I've been saying for years we need more "the gravity plating is out" episodes where everything is floating around, bumping into shit, causing problems. We got one scene in enterprise and that's it. :/
I mean, as far as the older shows, it was probably too expensive to produce “gravity-free” episodes?
I did really enjoy them using the gravity being turned off in Subspace Rhapsody though!
that is extremely hard to film.
So that you can stand on the lift, and not get head trauma every time you want to travel to a lower deck I'd assume.
You would just generate gravity in the lift pod itself.
They can move in all directions; maybe they weren't even in a shaft that could go up or down at the time. 🤷🏻♂️
