The 737 MAX MCAS debacle is overhyped compared to the critical structural parts for the 737 NG (-600+) Ducommun fabricated by bashing and hammering fragile aircraft alloys that should've been CNC'ed. These parts contributed to numerous fuselage separations on hard landings and runway overruns, whereas in the past, aircraft bodies survived largely intact and complete. There was an long-form expose on Al Jazeera that almost no one paid any attention to. The 737 NG is a fragile POS more likely to kill you than an Airbus 32x.
