(If complications occur regularly, and are not human initiated, then I would be concerned with the quality of the design. But we all know Boeing’s are brilliant piece of design and have been tried and tested).

When I initially read this I thought it was tongue in cheek.
Boeings are no better than Airbus, Embraer, Bombardier, etc. As you implied a product superiority and that simply isn't true. The 787 was grounded for 3 months worldwide to figure out why they were catching fire - still uncertain as to the cause. Solution, bury the batteries in a titanium box and put tubes leading to the outside so flaming battery liquid can vent out the side of the plastic airplane - that sounds safe....
