Well aren't they? They'll go with the dodgiest of airlines to save $50! So the answer is, yes, people are stupid so maybe they are thinking exactly that.

Really? Do we not understand that had the crew in the Lionair accident performed the Runaway Stabiliser NNC then the jet will have in all likelihood have landed safely, as it did when the previous crew followed procedure? The Boeing bulletin is emphasising a procedure that already exists and all 737 crew should be aware of.
IF it has occurred again, AND the crew haven't done the checklist, then we really should be looking at pilot training. However, despite conclusions that many are jumping to here, we should be awaiting the CVR and FDR outcome because this has the potential to be one of many scenarios.
