Many actual pilots would likely disagree. Shoehorning vastly different planes into the same type certificate can be dangerous. Convenient for pilots due to certification and recurrency issues, but not necessarily a good idea. Do you really want a pilot to jump into a 737MAX who only ever flew the -100? I bet the memory items are very different if not also all the speeds and weights. (NB: jet pilot, not Boeing airliner pilot though)
