And how stunned, some months later, by the ominous tone of statements alluding to how his background & training indicated possible contributing factor in a second segment stall that claimed 70 lives.

There looks sufficient grounds for at least deliberate consideration as to gaps where B787 & A350 level, automation failures, are trained & checked. Moreover, regulatory overseers, if a proposed AOA design/display improvement performs decisively effective in comparative testing, isn't that what retrofit is all about?
