Why is this allowed?

The authorities certify the aircraft knowing that it is possible that Otto throws in the towel at high altitude and the human has to take over.

So how is it within the rules for Air France to designate an FO with no experience of manual flying at altitude as PF (and as Capt's deputy)?
