Thanks. Can't say it better.
The thing is, a whole set of failures seems to have clustered around MCAS, and Boeing didn't do anything about it, and the FAA is now busily sweeping all of the evidence under the table to protect itself. .
The design of the 737 Max MCAS with two AoA sensors present and only one input used is *wierd*
