What about airmanship (basic training, skills, rules) ?
Just as valid on the Airbus FD as the Boeing one.
but still, does not replace a pair of good control columns when most needed.
And I believe all big airplane manufactures understood that ...
probably thanks to that early Airbus move.
Your opinion...
It could equally be argued that as the only other remaining 'big airplane' manufacturer, Boeing is remaining stubbornly stuck in the past.

* - For the record, I subscribe to neither of these viewpoints, believing strongly that you pays your money and takes your choice.
