Capn Bloggs;

Yes, it is a bit harsh, isn't it. It's how this matter, (the intoxication with automation), which I and many here and elsewhere, have been writing about since the 90s, is going to get resolved.
Do you really expect a bright-eyed, bushy tailed sprog to jump up and down on a training course demanding more stall training in the supposedly uncrashable Airbus?
You're setting up a straw man argument and answering your own question. Of course I don't expect it. We both know that one person cannot change policies or world-views of large organizations (which depend upon "group-think" for continued existence), but I think it is realistic to expect the matter to be addressed maturely and through due process within the applicable groups and pilot organizations. There is sufficient material and evidence now upon which to base change. In fact, agree with the wisdom of such change or not, it is occurring in the US and in Australia; I can't speak for Europe.

Regards,
