Nah bleed air is a pretty major system. 787 was a ground up design, so benefitted from lots of new tech. 737 max was something that they hoped wouldnt need a recert.

So no this wasn’t the victim of a rescope.

But it was the victim of MBAs eating the world, since the 737-of-theseus concept wouldn't exist and we'd be flying in newer design planes.

“737 of Theseus” is my new favorite aviation phrase. Right up there with “unscheduled disassembly event”.
