From an outside perspective it would seem that both pilots trying to AVIATE at the same time causes more trouble than it solves.
So now we have to wait six months to see if the Max should be grounded, instead of having one pilot COMMUNICATE the problem in real-time. They presumably had the company frequency on one box, why not just flick the comms open and stream the dialogue back to base?
