I think you’ll have to do better than that guys!
When AF447 had the pitot tubes freeze up it dropped the plane back into manual flight mode and alternate law. That is OK if you are trained for it and respond accordingly. There was no simulator training for the MAX if the MCAS failed, even if you had the MAX simulator and Boeing said no one needed any simulator time for the MAX.
