That's just the old "Tombstone Imperative" in action. SBs and ADs that would have been considered overkill before all of a sudden look a lot more sensible. Before the crash, you can bet the airlines would have balked.

They may not have been willing to expedite those repairs for the sake of a few level busts - but it becomes a whole different ball game when you lose an airframe and everyone in it.
