I think the answer should be roughly as follows, like someone in your profesion who bends his car on the way to the hospital to cut someone up, a pilot, like a doctor, should be able to seperate the incident from what he has to do next, most can I belive, some cultures have a problem doing this, there lies the problem.
Interestingly though, the ATC is usually relieved ASAP? Even in this case I believe. Not sure if for safety or for debriefing.
