Thanks again Alex, that indeed was my understanding as well.

Is that so? There are a few airlines looking for low-hour pilots with 100 PIC hours. Hence by not caring and not logging more time as SPIC or logging just the minimum 20 required for licensing purposes a student might end up with the mandatory minimum of 70 PIC hours in the logbook and be at disadvantage or have some explaining to do later.
