If you experience a runway stab trim you should follow the QRH procedures for a runaway stab trim. And so on.

Pretty radical, isn't it?

Note that the MCAS failure presents itself as a runway stab trim so that would mean that, wait for it! You should follow the QRH procedures for runway stab trim! Amazing, yes?
With a few other bells and whistles and pauses and speed.

Not I used the thumb trim stab switch and it continued to rotate after I took my thumb off.

If you recall the first event, the crew (3) entered the defect as Speed Trim operating in the wrong direction - Not a runaway trim.

Given the continued grounding and the work still being carried out on the "fix", it seems it does not present as simply a runaway trim but a little more confusing than that.
