If they needed to have G-force sensors removed, but still needed to have an AoA safeguard, why not attach the gyros to the system? Does 737 have gyroscopes? That would be a safeguard that won't affect slow-speed anti-stall activation but would still allow MCAS to stay quiet if AoA sensors failed.

Or am I talking rubbish?
