So, prove it. Provide a data set that proves your hypothesis.

And, please come up with something more than just one off anecdotals that don't provide any statistical significance or a basis for comparison.
When I flew the line I was a ALPA technical safety representative for most of my line carrer. I am still quite active in that arena and have been so since I retired. So, I am not exactly sitting around fishing. I interface with those active in the industry on an almost daily basis. (I've even flow a flew RNP AR approaches in a 737-800 simulator with all the latest and greatest stuff.)

A whole lot came out of Colgan 3407. It was a very extensive investigation. I personally worked on the Comair 5191 "constant chatter" wrong runway crash.

This is a link to a relevant article in the current issue of the ALPA Magazine. Note in particular "Talking Points" on the second page:
