Let me translate that for you Mutt....for clarity sake...

'When you fly corporate the boss is sitting in the back with his family, he doesn't want his pilot driving the plane to the fence and pulling it off...but when you fly for the airlines, and the flying public has no clue as to how a plane should be flown...it's ok to burn up all the runway with reduced power take offs, because when you bring the plane back to the shop, your own mechanics, who are compelled to stretch the engine overhaul times out as far as possible, can have an easier time not seeing things in the boroscope during the inspection process.

It's all about having enough insurance for each passenger seat, vs paying for more engines, and if you hire cheap pilots, who believe that burning up runway on purpose make sense, in some alternate reality, they can walk up and down the aisle telling the passengers, that safety is first, and actually believe it.."
