I see a pattern in B737 MAX threads, we have lots of interesting posts by gums, Takwis, et al, those posts which question the design choices made by Boeing, are conveniently ignored and left unanswered by the PR machine, perhaps because they have no solid arguments to counter them, then the conversation is conveniently steered to pilot error, lack of airmanship, lack of maintenance, bad airline reputation, energy rays, AF447, you name it.

All this in an attempt to deviate attention from MCAS and the flawed certification process for the B737 MAX.

A few months ago FCeng84 did provide valuable information about the MAX then he disappeared, then came 737driver with an heroic defense of the Boeing Company, and now we get external articles "crafted" in such a way as to make the dead pilots look incompetent.

Boeing & the FAA should concentrate on fixing the B737 MAX design for good, not just a software hack to mitigate the MCAS debacle, it seems EASA is the only player still exerting some sort of pressure to actually improve the safety of the MAX.

A proper fix may require lots of time, money, and a new certification process, the alternative is accepting a greater risk for loss of human lives.
