I frankly would hate to switch from a MAX 8 or 9 with one alert system (the default one found in all 737s) to a MAX 10 or 7 and then have an EICAS Airbus style. When stuff hits the fan, I'd rather have one uniform method of dealing with abnormalities. I actually see the MAX 8/9 certified one way, the MAX 7/10 certified the other way as a hindrance to safety.
The worst part of what you describe is that if you end up flying a few legs with EICAS, of course it will be a common type, you'll dread the next leg having to go back to the pachinko machine.
