I was amazed at that. Boeing used to be known for overdesign for safety. The B-747 had four redundant hydraulic systems. Here's a 787 doing aerobatics at the Farnborough air show to show that it can operate way outside the normal passenger aircraft flight envelope.[1]
Boeing used to be an engineering-first company. HQ was at Boeing's own airport near Seattle. Then they got new management and moved corporate HQ to Chicago.
