You are right in saying better training would reduce accidents, and it would seem from your last post, the training should emphasise go round if all is not right.

You are on the right track in pointing out that flying historic aircraft in modern environments needs more than a fleeting type conversion,BUT most display pilots seem to come from very professional backgrounds.

Perhaps it is the difficult balance between preserving remaining aircraft life, cost, and keeping up recency, not withstanding ageing iron, that is a factor in the tragic losses of pilots and historic aircraft.
