I think the takeaway is that it's not usually the case that something this technical makes it to world news. Everyone wants to have an opinion, but even in this article's case of someone who's both a pilot and programmer, they apparently know next to nothing about how a 737 MAX is controlled (mechanically, not with forces artificially applied to inputs) because they fly a Cessna. And there aren't that many 737 pilots with the time or ability to write something frank about this without perhaps getting in trouble with their employers.
