that the largest manufacturer in the world would produce a plane that is, apparently so vulnerable to uncommon but hardly unheard of circumstances, that it literally falls apart, especially when it is still in production.

I also find the assertion that the FAA, or any bureaucracy for that matter, is invulnerable to political manipulation, rather hard to believe. After all, they still have to keep the checks coming in like everybody else.
