Nobody who isn't an engineer wants is terribly interested in the argument that a model of plane that has killed 2 planes full of people recently is in anyone's opinion safe.
Personally I won't fly on one in my lifetime.
I'll leave the analysis of why to others to figure out why I fly on other airplanes.
Incidentally I have seen pilots argue that the max is inherently unsafe on this forum which is probably why people are reiterating it.
What is your area of expertise and what is your opinion?
You're missing the point of the post you're responding to. The poster is saying that the 737 MAX isn't inherently unsafe due to its aerodynamic configuration. The safety issue arose from the bungled MCAS system. This could be fixed without changing the airframe.
Actual engineers do care about the "why" since that's what matters. Otherwise don't bother flying on any aircraft since all models have crashed at some point.
Your second sentence is too glib. By just about any statistic you want to look at, the MAX-8 has an abysmal safety record. Probably worse than any other aircraft in revenue flight.
It's perfectly rational to look at the results, regardless of "why", and decide that the risk is just too great.
