At some point it may be necessary to review also whether the Lion Air accident was given sufficient attention / emphasis; and if not, why not.

It seems to me that a lot of people, including Ppruners, may have been lulled into thinking that the Lion Air incident was, to a certain extent, really their own fault.
And maybe, to a certain extent, it was. But was the response to the incident, in hindsight, even half-way adequate?

An airline with dubious safety, training and procedural standards, prior history, lax management of fault correction immediately prior to final crash, questionable actions on part of the fatal flight crew.
We'll send out a bulletin, throw in a software patch when we get around to it; we just need to make it idiot proof.

Maybe just not affording the incident the degree of attention that it deserved.
