More than half of them lived and the crew had a practically uncontrolable aircraft.

DC-10 was a death contraption.
MD-11 was a functional aircraft.

In my mind that incident was handled incredibly well and a far more interesting survival story than the 6 mins it took from smacking a few birds to landing on the Hudson river. (mind you, in the movie the hearings where they tried to blame the pilots was interesting).

It falls under the definition of "uncontrollable" mainly because there were no control surfaces that could be operated. Only engine throttles.

It sealed the final nail in the Concorde's coffin, also MD-11 is better

Look at that tail engine. It's like a tumor that appears to weight down the entire tail. As though it's not even meant to be there. Shit lazy design.

Don't they have a tendency to flip over on a bad landing due to the high CoG in the tail?

In that case those dangly things under the wings of pretty much every airliner are also tumors.
