It's not me who is seeing people as inferior. I have been consistent in saying my fundamental point is that if you want ATPL to be respected as a Profession (which it certainly could/should be) then seek respect for what it IS rather than trying to portray it as the one thing it isn't.
Apparently some pilots are such snowflakes that they cannot allow the suggestion that others have greater academic achievements than they do, while we are more than happy to recognise that professional pilots have much greater flying skill/proficiency/knowledge/experience than we do. But that still doesn't make it a degree!
