If the FO is uncomfortable unless he descends 10 miles early then he shouldn’t be in the seat.
If the FO wans extra fuel he can have it...if he can justify carrying it. He can’t have it just because.
Your points are valid, yet you seem like the worst kind of captain to pull out of the hat... You should maybe think a little about that. There are several ways to tell a guy the go to hell, but an elegant captain will make his FO look forward to the trip. You Sir, are not one of those...
