There might be more to it than the official theory...
I'm still having a lot of trouble getting my head around B's thought processes.
1. Don't tell the pilots about the existence of MCAS
2. Expect the pilot to respond within seconds to an unintentional MCAS activation.
3. Expect the pilot to sit quietly through an intentional MCAS trim-down and the subsequent trim-up "reset" without touching the electric trim.
