So Gordon, what would make you happy? A massive mea culpa from Boeing saying something like "It's all our fault. We screwed up. We gamed the system. We were naughty."
As many pilots like myself (and I note that you are not one) and engineers have pointed out on this forum, there is no single cause of an accident, it is a chain of events. And, all of the links on that chain bear some responsibility too - the regulators overseeing the airlines and their training, the airlines and their training systems and the pilots charged with the responsibility of flying an aircraft, even with those bells and whistles going off.
And you're right, this is getting repetitive.
