Maybe? Let me leave you with one other tidbit though. Beyond the requirements, airframe changes, and added electrical stuff, to fly the 737s you need a type rating and that rating is basically an education on all systems and procedures for the airframe. Boeing worked hard to make all aircraft from the 200 through the MAX fall under one type rating so if you get certified to fly an old low bypass 200, you can hop out, walk across the tarmac to a MAX and take off with another load of passengers. Obviously almost nobody runs the 200 anymore but the later aircraft are all still operated in some capacity and having one rating to rule them all makes it cheaper for small operators with mixed fleets to afford the training costs. In doing this, Boeing had to make the basic "UI" for the aircraft all the same, regardless of model. I'm not typed in the 737 but from what I've heard, it's resulted in a lot of user flow and documentation idiosyncrasies, particularly in the MAX lineup which could be part of the issue here. All that said, the trim motor disconnectors have been in the same place for most of the aircraft's history I'm told and hitting them would have likely prevented the Lion Air accident.
