following a reasonable FD command he´s also protected if he encounters windshear
Blind acceptance or blind following a FD command especially in severe windshear will not necessarily protect you. Good airmanship and the cold realisation that FD commands are not always the magic solution, will do more to protect you from coming to grief, than locking on to FD needles oblivious of what the aircraft is doing.
