Now I see
That's crew integration and crew coordination.
For decades, my colleagues and I, flying for one of the greatest intercontinental airline have fought such a behaviour in the cockpit.
I remember there were times when we co-pilots had a notebook on which were recorded foibles of each commander. Remember though that we were dealing with people who had fought the Second World War and from whom we shared a strong generation gap. Some of them came from fighters and had shot down many aircraft opponents. So that often when we arrived in New York with one of those guys there was always some air-traffic controller who recognized him "Is .... On board? "
" Yes! "
" Now I understand your behaviours. "
