Why not look out the window and if you see the traffic, turn to avoid conflict rather than just follow the green on the TCAS. Remember TCAS only controls vertical separation. Why not have both vertical and lateral separation? Blind faith in the TCAS might not always work. Follow the green but turn too for insurance if you see the suspected conflict.
