The solution is surely simple. Boeing only sell MAX to US customers where the skills and training are all exceptional and let Airbus sell to the lower level.
That 'them and us' bias creeps in much to regularly in these threads. Accept that not all pilots have your magnificent skills yet they still get hired. That is todays world, but even US pilots crash sometimes.
Surely you have to design to the standard that the lowest skilled that may get posted to the MAX left seat is able to survive without exceptional skills or you just pick your customers.
