On the line or when training? During training then of course the situation is different (and as an aside I'd never consider independent sidesticks to be a good idea in a PPL trainer), however on the line with SLF behind you, isn't it better to be absolutely sure (even if to be sure takes only a fraction of a second)? I can't help but think that if it were me and I'd just taken control, misread the situation and caused a crash I'd be absolutely gutted.
