It is a nasty punitive system.
That was proven with the departure of the MEL crew before an analysis of the event had even begun.
SVP- Safety has accepted to be overruled by Flight OPS and has broken the vital trust that a safety system must have between Pilots and the safety department. The prevention of accidents is based on data from involved parties including pilots. If the system is punitive then you loose the vital data from the pilots and you willingly ignore the MODERN aviation safety principles.
A safety system must be JUST and must be balanced. Emirates is far from JUST.
Emirates is less safe due to this fact - not because of the hard working pilots but because of the system.
