I guess the question is what's the likelihood of such a situation, vs the likelihood of the situation where a 'nanny' computer prevents the crew doing something dangerous?

And then we have 'nanny' computers of 737 MAX that caused crashes (more than one) against the pilots actions to save it

The MAX crews had the option to turn off the stab trim. Of the 3 MAX incidents, only one of them turned it off, which is why you only hear about the other 2.
