Knowing that some new mechanism exists that can mess your flight doesn’t necessarily help much:
The truth is that the plane even with that new device turned off behaves differently than the plane for which you trained!
The cause is Boeing’s lie that it’s “just more efficient old plane” when in fact it is a new plane with different and worse flying behavior. The device was implement to hide that fact.
So even if you as a pilot know about it, until you diagnose it and turn it off the plane can already be in the almost unrecoverable state. But once you turn the device off you‘re supposed to save the plane for which you weren‘t trained and in the alteady hard-to-save state!
