Agreed. One could argue that the AoA reading mismatch was the root cause, but the plane alerted the pilots to the discrepancy just as it was meant to (through stick shake and panel readouts).
They were aware of the issue, took measures to mitigate them, and MCAS still drove the plane into the ground.
