This captain is NEVER wrong if you know what I mean!
He must be if Controllers are always right
I remember reaching DET10d on this SID at 6000', but following the lateral track. With the aircraft about to turn left I suggested to my oppo that keeping heading rather than turning was a good idea!
Anyhow, when I could get a word in (frequency congestion on 120.525, never!) I asked if our idea of keeping heading was a good plan... Well, the response was astonishingly appreciative!
