You sound like someone I went to school with - suffice to say he was not the most popular guy in class.
Have you ever operated long haul flights? Twelve hour flights are common, and some ultra long haul flights are eighteen hours. Do you know how many airports you pass enroute on such a flight? Are you seriously suggesting that the operators should have the crews perform all the available approaches into each of these airports in the sim?
Having a PRACTICAL knowledge of enroute airports and then having to do an unplanned diversion into one while trying to sort out an inflight emergency would still be stressful to any sane pilot.
I think the guys you are trying to belittle while sitting there cutting and pasting regulations, may have a bit more of an understanding of real world international operations.
