> I am continuously astounded that even on HN people are focusing on news cycle bullshit about inherent instability instead of the actual issues with Boeing/FAA that caused this situation.

How is it surprising that people are sceptical of claimed native flight characteristics after the way Boeing has handled communications after the crashes? I don't think that there are any independent facts around, even airline pilots who had been flying MAX from day one would not have much (if any) experience at the edges of the flight envelope. One data point we do know is that some people at Boeing were apparently very concerned about MCAS ever being off.

Skeptical, absolutely! But it doesn't help to make up new facts.
