He plainly states that some unidentified human factors design flaw was the problem with the 737 MAX and the 777x and that it has to do with not giving pilots critical information; this is very much at the heart of the PIA 8303 crash.
Ewbank reiterates his internal critique of the crew-alerting systems on the MAX, saying that they failed to meet the current standards for such alerts, which are supposed to be “designed with the latest understanding of human factors to present information to flight crews and prompt appropriate reaction in critical scenarios.”
I'd say lining up on a runway far too high and far too fast is a critical scenario.
