You have to know that the problematic Anti-Stall feature was just recently added in the MAX rev 8. The older rev 1-7 don't have it. It might have other stall problems due to being backheavy, but the traditional stall warning should have been good enough. There was no accident in rev 1-7, none with the improved Southwest configuration (with two sensors) and already two complete losses with the updated MCAS rev 8. They already did two more updates on this (9 and 10), but still not safe enough for modern safety standards.
