It does, Beagle is talking nonsense.
TCAS was conceived to minimise collision risk however caused, ATC or pilot. My guess is that more RAs have resulted in pilot error, not necessarily incompetence, than by mistakes, or “ incompetence” by controllers.
The 2 RAs in my experience were caused by altitude busts , mis set.MCP, misunderstood clearance, I don’t know but TCAS saved the day.
Using TCAS during ACT , are you guys kidding ?
