In court that will cost them dearly: it demonstrates they were aware using two sensors would be safer.

Probably AA or SWA demanded it, and Boeing compromised by charging for it.

But... #6 was about paying attention to the other computer, not the other sensor. That would involve some big and expensive changes to the flight computer software, which they probably should have done long before the MAX project started.

More management failure.

It's nonsense. There was no paid option that affected the use of the second sensor.
