Yes, I think the software fix will be mcas disabled due aoa disagree or limiting it power. Hopefully the aircraft still in stable envelope. The training with mcas should be mandatory. Since there no mention of mcas notification.

The ground aoa sensor system troubleshooting need to be fixed also, since it somehow seems more fragile than NG series, and lion air ground crew can't fix it.
