The aircraft is 1 year old and was delivered in January...

But, fucking hell, apparently Boeing "engineers" are so dumb they never learned about Murphy's law.

I’d be far more likely to suspect Boeing’s management for pushing unsafe schedule or staffing and having things slip through the cracks. They have a reputation.

I bet you would blame the automotive engineers too after reversing your car through the garage door.

I'm commenting on the genius of this design. Even if yesterday's accident isn't due to this design, how dumb can you be to design something like that, it's what Murphy's Law says to not do.

You mean like the death of Anton Yelchin, where poor gearshift design made it incredibly easy to confuse whether the car was in gear or in park?

Yeah, that is indeed primarily on the engineers.

What kind of person parks on a hill without setting the parking brake?

Advice: You really should look up how the engineers designed the gear lever, before voicing more of your ignorant "knowledge".

Edit: Oh you're talking about the parking brake, not the gear lever. Smells of victim-blaming.
