You think that uncontrollable banking will not have an effect to bring down an airplane. Good thing you're not a pilot. Here's a piloting tip, if you can't move the rudder, your elevators, and your airlons, you're more than likely going to crash.
Yes, they couldn't reproduce the problem with a unit they purchased because they weren't defective. All it takes is one defective unit to cause a problem, or do you think everything off the shelf is perfect? The truth is that there were problems with electronics. The truth is that the pilots of the planes reported that it went into uncontrolled banking. The truth is that a plane will crash if it can't come out of an uncontrolled bank if not corrected.
