May be a different Standard of Preparation?
I remember this, because on my entering the snag, the Engineer checked the "STATUS" page and there was a message that both of were unfamiliar with. A check in the Maintenance Manual indicated that the message refers to the failure of the emergency system. If I remember right, it's activated after 30 seconds of the Hydraulic pack operation and a failure to unlock the Uplocks.

Look, it's PPRUNE, not amendments to QRH or FCTM!! Just sharing experiences.
But you are right. We have now become 'people of the book".
The preface to the QRH, explicitly warns pilots, not to use Maintenance level knowledge to trouble shoot. Interestingly, it also goes on to say further, that if at the end of the non normal check list, if the situation is undesirable, one may use such knowledge. But do'nt expect any kudos.
