It's quite possible that the MAX problems may be due in part to process problems inside Boeing. As such, the 777X trouble may very well be related.
Back when I was an 'aerospace engineer' at Boeing, the FAA did look at our processes as well as designs. But that was something Boeing management pushed back against. Perhaps that was a mistake.
