Completing a 4 week course that any mess steward can attend without a robust, scientifically designed selection process is just not the same, no matter what way you skin it.
Until then, they will have to suck it up and accept they are a role fit for the aircraft and nothing more. Sorry.
I'd be interested to know who does a 6 month leadership course. CC aircrew would surely be airman aircrew?
