One rather small (then) airline I worked for in asia long ago pasted their logo on the Boeing manual and mentioned...fly it this way, thank you very much.

Seemed like a good idea to me.

Then, SOP's were not all that detailed, as the airline expected their training/line Captains to show the new guys the ropes.

Also seems a good idea....and it worked surprisingly well.

If you get too pedantic, oftentimes it obscures the initiative needed when things don't go according to hoyle..IE: not as expected.
SR111 comes to mind.
