> From what I've read on some pilot forums, Boeing made a few errors:
I'll agree with #2-4, but #1 was the entire point of MCAS - to reduce the response of the aircraft to pulling back on the yoke in high AOA situations. Disabling MCAS when pulling back on the yoke would thus make the aircraft less safe, and cause it to (rightly) fail certification.
