Most pilots are already trained for the type of situation presented to the Lion Air crew. You touch on the real issue: why did Boeing decline to mention the MCAS system in manuals? After the LionAir accident, FAA & Boeing did put out manual changes.https://www.flyingmag.com/faa-emergency-airworthiness-directive-boeing-737-max-8 …

If s sensor has failed on two of the 350 new 737-max in service shouldn’t a grounding of all these planes be in order until they can be inspected/fixed? I am due to fly a Southwest 737-800 to Puerto Rico in a few weeks but I am changing my flight.

A 737-800 is not the same as a 737 MAX 8.

A 737-800 is not the same as a 737 MAX 8. Typically, a 737-800 is listed as a B738, 738, or 73H. A MAX-8 is usually listed as B38M, 7M8, or 3M8.

Is the FAA prioritizing airline profits over passenger safety by not grounding these jets?
-
Not at all. They’re doing what they should do: let evidence dictate the action instead of knee-jerk reactions. We don’t yet know what caused this accident. Investigators have FDR/CVR. If it proves to be a MAX8 issue, expect an airworthiness directive, up to/including grounding.
