I think emotive/political language aside, it explains that the 737 MAX was pushed out the door to catch up with Airbus's newer, more fuel-efficient engines. Boeing basically used an existing plane design and jammed the engine in there, and tried to offset it with a new MCAS technology to help with the nose pitch issues. While it's worked most of the time, seems there's some edge cases in that tech that might not have been there had there been a ground up redesign.

I think this twitter thread might provide a more objective take on the same types of content in the article: https://twitter.com/emorwee/status/1770833808222277890
