For what it's worth, I'm not sure that this is true. I think there is a conjunction involved -- MCAS is activated when [a] or [when flaps are up and b]. I'm not sure whether [a] covers the take off/go around case, but it seems like it might since that case produces high AoA due to the extra lift generated by the engine placement at high load.
