Oh dear MM, you just blew all the credit we gave you!
Blaming the line pilots of being lazy, not wanting to apply as TRI/E and take another shafting by dismal conditions, by a dreadful bidding system, by a even more crap e-swap, yes, blaming the line pilots working in excess of 90h for the need to get DECs, most importantly training astronauts, is extremely low!
At least now you routed part of the anger of the bypassed FOs onto the line captains!! Smart move, but without looking too much into the future. The new trainers will be met with even more contempt, now by FOs AND Captains and all of MMs good training work (yes it was very good) just goes down the drain.
I guess he has finally adapted to EK and DXB.
