HFP...valid observations.

Absolutely Fabulous...
The facts are the facts and speak for themselves. That's why the FAA has now mandated minimum experience levels to operate commercial airliners. This was legislated in response to experience levels noted as a factor in recent accident statistics. This is self evident and not something malleable.

It has nothing to do with standards of creeping excellence between generations. In fact, creeping excellence works in the opposite direction now seen in aviation, each generation usually demands more experience (excellence) not less.
