I don’t disagree, it just wasn’t obvious - to me - what was being referred to originally. I think it’s because lexically/conceptually I don’t associate the issue with any particular airline, as it seems the through line is that they are specifically Boeing planes of a certain series with these issues, and not due to any particular airline or servicing or lack thereof, but rather, a defect in the original design as specified and/or a flaw or oversight in production. Considering the frequency and impact of the issues, I’m inclined to believe it’s a bit of both.
