The mental idea that "anything that is not correct is a danger" is a human characteristic that ends up in overcorrecting. It's a common misconception the 737 is the cause here, the 737 is only the perfect playground for people with this personality as they are not really causing any harm (besides discomfort for the rest on board). These people will do the same thing on a 777, an A320,... The worst was a military C130 driver, whom I debriefed that a 3km paved runway is not a 1000ft dirt strip :-).
It's all about the mindset.
