Please stop twisting words and adding meaning with a huge bias.
I would posit that when someone says "MCAS failed" they are referring to the MCAS system as a whole, "inputs, processing and outputs" not just the processing block.
Saying 'MCAS" did not fail when it's (by bad design) single AoA input failed also could be construed as "twisting words".
