An interface as we discuss must be hierarchical. Value, limit, and ability (consequence) must be innate, self evident. And without any prejudicial load.
Expectations can be the enemy of the well designed system.

At its most basic, Command. One must be taught more importantly than power, is the ability to prioritize importance, not power. Skill must be measured in a form of humility that honors each, the machine, and the man.

Not really a training issue per se, but attitudinal. The 200 hour pilot is not contra indicated (preferred?) if the format is taught without bias, of any kind. In a sense, traditional pilot training is in many ways a negative v/v fluid exchange of command. Is it patience, then, until all the old ones go?
