The only thing not covered by LWT (no shade for them at all) was the reaction time required to "correct" MCAS' error. Imagine being strapped into a seat in the cockpit, and the plane suddenly nosedived and you have under twenty seconds to correct it after not being informed it had that much control in the first place. People who fly model airplanes and helicopters wouldn't accept that. Pilots with planes full of travelers absolutely shouldn't. Enshittification issues aside, (takes mental gymnastic skills that I don't have) that is an unforgivable mistake that should have never made it to planes.
