It's been one week since I posted:

Everything you need to know about why there isn't an "abundance of caution" and Boeing is now run by penny pinchers who would gladly sacrifice your life for their stock grants and how they've captured regulators and left them toothless is covered in the incredible book "flying Blind", and it has echoes to many other companies with storied pasts that are picked to the bone by temporary profiteers and discarded once dead. Can't recommend it highly enough.
