Fact is Boeing knows exactly who they are selling these planes to, and they have to dumb it down to the lowest common denominator. Every airline has their strong pilots and their not so strong pilots. Lion air is sort of an example of that. You get the wrong crew on a bad day, even in the good ol’ USA, and this could easily happen. This isn’t some NASA demonstrator plane flown by test pilots. If anyone thinks it’s ok what this new MCAS is doing because “they would have saved the day” they’re delusional. Boeing has been selling a flawed product and they deserve what’s coming.
