Sorry but i disagree, first of all we need to classify if MCAS is a stall warning or a stall identification system, once we define that we can define what are the actions required. According to certification a pilot should be able to disable a stall id system and such system should not be prone to a single failure. That is not the case of MCAS. To off it pilots loose all electrical controls on the stab, and MCAS is prone to single AoA failure, that is the reason why it was classified as a augmentation system...when in my opinion is a stall ID system... cutting corners to solve major issue
