Respectfully, sir, I disagree. Now that we all know where to look, the SS/Yoke kerfuffel is moot. If 447 had not been bobbing like a hula girl and had reasonable stability in the flightdeck, the RHSS might have tipped PF's "hand". The SS cannot be condemned, conclusively, here. Machinbird has shown how uncomfortable the footing/seating was on her Flight Deck. Restraints were not to spec. (from a user standpoint), and the Captain was holding onto the two seats like a sailor holds on to the bar, at 2 o'clock.
Just a thought.
