It's rather striking that so many smart and experienced people have been investigating and considering MCAS for such a long time and the consensus is something like, "We're not sure what it was really supposed to deal with and definitely not sure how it would do whatever that is." And that's aside from the issues surrounding the fatal failures.

Someday, some of the insiders will be ready to tell the whole story.
