Indeed, with Max sales trailing the NEO by 2900 to 4400 I would be suspicious that Boeing will do everything they can to avoid any suggestion that there is a problem with the MAX.
Boeing enjoyed dominance of this market sector for decades, and the MAX being reduced from dominance to a 40% market share will have the suits worried.
