What a crock.
1 - Spoilers on MAX are FBW... MCAS on some extent could fall on that definition
2 - FAA delegated Boeing on certification, literally is not in a hurry, they did that because did not have sufficient workforcemto do it... which translates in a hurry, since waiting was not an option. EASA certified because of mutual agreement
