Let sleeping dogs lie

So who selects (breeds) the dog; trains it, checks its health.
Will the training be sufficient for all circumstances.
What happens if the dog dies.

Let sleeping dogs lie.

Quips in these instances, reflect our un-wiliness or inability to engage with the issue, to look ahead, consider pros and cons, and debate alternative solutions - if there are any at all.

Some current operations suggest that this type of system already exists. Hard-line inbred safety concepts and constrained training like a dog; the dog being enforcing tools, culture, SOPs, adverse investigations, or at least cold tea, no biscuits.

The Airbus research is opportunity for us to consider the future; - a future which we might be able to influence with understanding, opposed to having to accept someone else's view, not wishing to think about the issues.
