Similarly, in hindsight we can scrutinise every detail of what this guy did but in the end of the day he as the commander of the ship used his emergency authority to do what he did and saved the aircraft and its occupants.
We can scrutinize, because the commander uploaded the video! So, okay, we won't scrutinize a pilot who makes the best decision he can in the moment, and gets back on the ground with no further damage, then quietly goes about returning things to normal as best they can. However, in this new world of "Here's the video of what I did!!!", scrutiny should be anticipated.
