dont blame the tools - blame the tools that use them...

any idiot that uses methods such as this "just because the rules say so", without due customisation to be appropriate to the application, and then does not go ahead and implement appropriate mitigations should be given all of the planes, that have landed in cow fields, to clean..... (preferably with their tongues)

any method MAY help you get to an answer and investigate new solutions BUT this needs to be
1) done at the right time (i.e. before you need the solution)
2) reviewed periodically (but not every time you want to do somthing)
3) done by someone who knows what they are doing (in this case it would be brilliant if it was done by some of the cynical, skeptical pilots as they appear to have seen it and done it and can come to an answer quickly, or at least it will hush them up)
4) needs follow up actions (such as changing the checklist or training methods)

AS SUCH I think that a lot of this has already been done (although we did not realise that we were doing it at the time) and the resulting mitigations put into action. Although sadly we still have to revisit when the AAIB reports.
