Evidently FAA and Boeing both agreed these were required changes to MCAS logic from what they could learn from LionAir. Why the type was not grounded then and instead they let the fleet fly while developing the fix which is now being required to have them airworthy again is very questionable...

"to make a safe airplane safer" is just a Coué-method equivalent of "to make a dangerous airplane a little less dangerous"
Or an aeronautical equivalent of washing powder advertisement "to wash whiter than white". If it's whiter now, it was not white before, it was grey
