I don't want to filter out the max8/max8 planes because of bad pitot tubes or blowouts or nosedives.

I want to filter them out because even on a good day they're horribly appointed terrible airplanes with absolutely nothing redeeming about them.

And I fly the fancy seats.

The fact they even HAVE a configuration where the back loo is right next to the galley with an open-air American-style bathroom partition separating the two, that should get someone arrested.

I thought generally the configuration of seats and galleys and toilets was up to the airline and they were pretty much modular?
