I assume that a lot of people here want to avoid the 737s not necessarily because they're scared for their lives, but as a way to show disapproval to Boeing. Like, I won't avoid flying a 737 Max if it's the only option for flying, but I generally prefer to pick a different manufacturer if it's available. On a large scale, many people avoiding a specific aircraft model puts pressure on airlines to not start or continue ordering said model.
