Amazing.
Simple question; do you use the FIX page/function on your aircraft, in any way at all to help lateral tracking during engine out departure procedures in VMC? Most do. If 'no'; why?
If yes; while you, personally may wish to go back to the 1950's on approach, you might also consider when 'hand flying' why you're in favour of FMC/FMS backup for safety, pilot monitoring during departures, but not during arrivals?
It's not very becoming to publicly chastise those pilots who may choose to use all the tools available to them, including outside visual references & inside guidance as a backup.
