Oh boy, "bluntly"! You moved the goal posts with the judgement thing since we were discussing skill, not judgement. Probably because you couldn't come up with any skills. A five thousand hour pilot does not necessarily have any better judgement than a two hundred hour pilot. The five thousand hour pilot has demonstrated it, though. A one thousand hour CFI that has spent the bulk of their time in the pattern teaching has just as good (probably better) skills than most five thousand hour pilots and, quite possibly, better judgement. It's not that complicated. The whole "real world" flying is better just because you left an airport, is mostly hot garbage. It's all real world.
