That is true, but from the descriptions I have read of the MCAS, my understanding is that this is exactly the way the MCAS would behave in an actual high AoA situation, intermittent adjustments of stabilizer position. In other words, the "intermittent" part wasn't a result of the bad AoA data, the erroneous AoA data was consistently and continuously high, and the MCAS was responding as it was designed to respond to a high AOA.
