You're giving a huge vote of confidence to the FAA and Boeing if suggesting they won't try the NG sim route. They will try to pass this off as a "procedural" or "muscle memory" box to check in a sim. The NG sim can accomplish that.
As for me? I have no faith in the FAA or Boeing right now so I'm going to I assume they recommend the NG sim. Obviously I've been paying closer attention to this subject matter than you.
For the record, MCAS needs to be removed from the MAX and crews segregated for training and operational purposes.
