It goes on to state that if you did not opt for the AOA display, your disagree alert was "not operable". However, there will be an optional service bulletin to tell you how to make it operable on aircraft already delivered. So that's OK then.
Isn't it amazing how Boeing's engineering is never wrong, it is just that the customers do not understand it. I should look up and see if some of my old management colleagues work there, this BS is so familiar (although we did it better.)
