This necessitated the MCAS


Yes regulations made Boeing develop a system to make the 737 handle exactly the same as older models. Which is a dumb rule since other jets like A318-A321 and 757/767 all handle differently but they are the same type certificate anyway. They subcontracted that work out to an Indian IT company to develop the MCAS software. All facts.

I’m not disputing that. I’m saying Boeing, in their effort to rush out an aircraft, hid the MCAS system from the flight manual in order to get their aircraft approved quicker. Engineers fought against that but weren’t listened to. So, when the MCAS took over the aircraft, the pilots had no idea what was happening or how to override it. Boeing caused those crashes due to negligence.
