I’m not sure I would say that the 737 Max has gotten worse in “some ways”, by which I assume you are referring to safety.

New aircraft models up to about the 1990s frequently had serious design defects that resulted in fatalities, including the 737 (most notably related to the rudder).

Indeed, we've seen a slight regression in safety, but definitely not to 1980s levels.
