Crews may be aware now, but remember- the Lion Air accident were dealing with unreliable flight instruments along with the MCAS trimming. Merely shutting off the electric stab trim does not eliminate the bad air data indications on the affected side. In itself, a bad set of PFD indications can be a handful wether or not the stab trim is cut off by the crew as recommended.
Clearly, there is no final report from the Indonesians, but unreliable airspeed, etc. was one of the problems as far as I’m aware.
