I concur with SOSL. I once deployed to Afghanistan for a month with an aircraft who was just that - a complete nutter. Not just a bit unconventional or a maverick. He was a plain old fashioned nutter & it was the most difficult problem I've ever been faced with! His behavior did get a lot worse when he was drunk but his worst crimes (and they were crimes in retrospect) took place when he was sober. He was unstable and booze only exaggerated deep set character flaws.
Needless to say when I realized what was going on I spoke to my chain of command. Predictably I was told to get back in my box as it was all just 'high spirits' until he got sent back from his next detachment 3 days in for nearly wiping out his whole aircraft and a platoon of Marines. Just like I'd told them he would!
There are just some people out there who are not wired like everyone else, they can present a problem that the system seems incapable of dealing with.
That said, it's difficult to see how this initiative isn't a good thing.
