Do you mean McDonnell Douglas?

Muilenberg became CEO 18 years after the merger. I wouldn't expect him to exemplify Boeing's old culture. It was also only 6 months before the first 737 MAX flight.

Oops. Yes.

His lineage is in the Boeing culture, not the McDonnell Douglas culture.

That's true but he came from the defense side of Boeing.
