If that requires lots of help and training, and more importantly, the pilot is willing to play his part and take it on board, then that would be a much better result.
I am reminded here of the old adage that ends:
"...He who knows not, and knows not he knows not - he is a fool, shun him."
Self-denial to the point of delusion is not a good foundation for any form of (re-)training.
