@WalterBright: “These crashes are no different” ..

“1. the design shortcomings of MCAS”

“5. The flight crews did not follow the memory runaway trim procedure”

How would the pilots have switched off MCAS if they didn't know it was there?

They throw the switch that turns off automatic trim. That the automatic trim system is going nuts due to some new system (MCAS) they don't know about as opposed to it going nuts for one of the reasons it might do so on earlier planes doesn't matter.
