Why would anyone be scared to fly on the most scrutinized plane in history?

Finding a bug is not the same as fixing a bug, and finding lots of bugs doesn't mean you've found them all.

So I imagine your position is that the software industry should swear off products altogether when they have a serious bug, right?

Did you make a conscious effort to rid yourself of OpenSSL after Heartbleed? After Heartbleed, OpenSSL received mountains of extra funding as well as unprecedented scrutiny.

Guess what happened after the MAX disasters? Extra funding and unprecedented scrutiny. In fact, no plane has been scrutinized more.

"Most scrutinized" means that you might have a fair chance at finding a higher proportion of them, though.
