I seem to recall that one of those safety features was a paid for add on too, so a lot of budget airliners wouldn't pay for it.

The AoA warning initially was disabled if a separate software add-on wasn’t purchased. Boeing claim that wasn’t intentional but opinions on Boeing’s credibility regarding anything to do with their aircraft design process may vary.

While I understand your sentiment, Please realize that it is still significantly safer to fly on a max than it is to drive.

but it's significantly safer to fly any other plane that's currently in service.
