desired claim isn't that two airplanes crashed. The desired claim is who is at fault.
I don't know if that is really a desired claim, but both sides in politics have their desired claim to support whatever solution better fits their desired end.
In my opinion, the crashes are not facts with which anyone could reasonably argue. I don't think there's room to argue that maybe the crashes were unrelated, for instance. Given that we can all agree that the crashes occurred and were caused by a similar fault (in this case MCAS), I think it's entirely reasonable to "work back from there" and figure out _why_ this airliner was certified as safe and through that exercise discover what changes can be made to that certification process to prevent other dangerous airliners from being certified.
