The problem with adopting a shipping style of command is how quickly the situation can unravel in a plane vs a boat.
You can easily lose control of an aircraft in about 5 seconds whereas a boat I imagine would be more forgiving. Given that certain failures on numerous aircraft types make the pilot's job harder rather than easier handing control over to the FO could result in task saturation and a loss of SA and the possibly the aircraft.
