interesting speculation from reddit thread

I just read an interesting post on the reddit 737 MEGA Thread about possible internal Boeing reports on the AOA/MCAS failure. Not that reddit can be trusted as 'professional' source of information, but now days anything seems to be fair game as far as where valid info might pop up...
Some info leaking down the engineering community grapevine, I have it second hand from a buddy working for one of the subcontractors, reportedly a memo was circulated internally at Boeing as early as AUG 2018 of potential failure modes tied to MCAS-AOA programming logic[...]
Take if for what it is, but am curious if any of the experts might chime in to the plausibility of the failure mode talked about?
