8. 'Most planes aren't designed to dive nosefirst into the ground like the 737 Max.'

The 737 Max never dived nosefirst into the ground because of its mechanical design. It was because of a glitch in the PROGRAMMING of the automatic flight software taking over the control and causing it to crash.
This problem COULD be computer related as well. Both engines don't fail simultaneously unless the same flight software suddenly shut them down as if the plane was on the ground and parked. Something got that plane 650 feet in the air THEN failed to continue to work.
