I called the CAN bus "overhyped" for 6 years, then a 2019 737 MAX wiring job in Tulsa humbled me

The CAN bus being "overhyped" is the right call though. It's a 40 year old protocol that was never meant for safety critical stuff, and everyone acts like it's some magic fix. One wiring job in Tulsa proves nothing except that Boeing had bad QA, which we already knew. You can swap in ARINC 429 or even switched ethernet and get way better fault detection. Blaming the bus for a sloppy install is like blaming the road when your brakes fail.
