Herc I think I need to set some things right for you.
At no point do any unlicensed un-type rated pilots get behind the controls with PAX in the back on European registered Aircraft.
All the pay to fly candidates still need all the ticks in the same boxes as any other pilot sitting in that seat.
It is not uncommon for 200 hour CPL/IR holders to do a type rating and then go for line training.
This practise will not stop until there is either nobody willing to pay or the powers that be legislate to stop it.
It is now a multi million pound industry these line training deals.
