This is a massive liability to the captain and a risk. The hard landings, low level go arounds and seriously damaged aircraft are the cost. Just because they haven't crashed doesn't mean its OK.
Dragon Air also has a silly command upgrade program with a 100% failure rate at times due to a rightful paranoia about Asian operations and RHS inexperience.
That said, there's a new direction now. So we'll see.
