Yup, that's generally it in a nutshell.
Clearly the specified Captain was a prat, and quite frankly, should be referred to the Chief Pilot and be sent back to the sim for remeadial training.
OTOH, if said Captain IS the Chief Pilot...then we have a slight problem...
Flying into Russia a few months ago, we receive an ATC clearance that neither the First officer nor the Flight Engineer can understand, as for myself, just barely.
I ask again, as the First Officer is flying the airplane.
This time the ATC instruction is in English....ahhh, that's much better.
