To be honest, I know little about the Boeing FBW.
No, my suggestion is simply the result of many years of observation. If you reduce the laws and the complexity, you end up with something more straight forward and simple for the pilot thinking. It means that for every single simulator session, a way or the other, the pilots will automatically be exposed to direct law with the necessity to manually trim if in manual flight (why AP could not be avail in direct law ?), and a clear thinking of what is available or not.
Is it such an handicap to fly direct law after all ?
You most probably know much more than me regarding the B. FBW, but what I can say is that up to now, and the triple 7 is flying for a while, I simply never ear about it – Something must be good.
