Even if you could recover without MCAS Boeing still wouldn’t have released a version without it as the recovery procedure have needed new training.

Let’s not forget MCAS only exists to protect Boeing’s profits by avoiding a new type certification.

And if Boeing had originally went with a new type certification, the plane they'd build wouldn't need MCAS. The MAX can't exist without something like MCAS, can it?
