Former Boeing 737 Max Chief Technical Pilot Indicted for Fraud

Only if the workload doesn't shake out favorably in light of Amdahl's law.

Most mechanical processes aren't necessarily conducive to parallelization. Verification and information processing on the other hand can do favorably in the presence of non-reliance on a physical system-under-test.

Which subsystem vetting arguably is. If you're talking vetting specs.

Yes, there are some circumstances under which it makes sense to parallelise some of the work.

I'm assuming the FAA does this already. Human organisations have a bias to parallelise to a fault. Increasing the parallelism level beyond this does not improve lead times.
