Yes, flying the aircraft and using FMS guidance as confirmation are not mutually exclusive. If anyone is suggesting zero FMS guidance is better than having lateral & vertical FMS guidance, that ain't right.
Plenty of aircraft have flown into the ground with pilots flying the aircraft without any FMS guidance.
Using both to the best of our ability, is what we're paid to do.
