It is highly unlikely that the next major aircraft accident will be due to MCAS or even anything related to the MAX. It is reasonably probable that the next hull loss will have a flight crew related cause, and high on the list of potential causes is that someone forgot to FLY THE AIRCRAFT. Plain and simple.

Until we take this seriously enough to actually do something about it, we are just going to be back here someday discussing some other unlucky pilot who got caught at a time he didn't expect with a problem he didn't expect and who somehow forgot to FLY THE AIRCRAFT first, last, and always.
Sadly that day is today, and not a MCAS event as predicted.
