As far as I know, the MAX software fully complied with its software requirements. The problem was crappy system requirements, and Boeing actively lied to their pilots to conceal that they added a brand new automatic flight control system that can push the elevators down independent of the autopilot and stick pusher.
i read that Boeing paid developers in India less than $5/hr for the 737 MAX software

That last part is what sent people to jail.
That’s shit even by Indian standards.
