Let’s really be honest - there’s more than two kinds. There’s 100,000’s of thousands pilots who think having 250 hr TT large jet FO’s isn’t as safe as passengers deserve.
But the military does it. The counter-argument is -
1. check out some of their accidents and accident statistics.
2. scheduling and SOF’s limit newbies exposure. In the airline business there is none once you’re done with training.
