CDA's and stable approaches are not mutually exclusive! In fact, in my experience I can honestly say that often the pilot who's planning his descent and is being proactive is less likely to balls up on the stabilisation than those sticking with VNAV all the way or open descent. Aircraft should be operated in a safe and efficient manner. level at 2000' 15 miles out is neither of those. You're far more likely to get a false G/S and believe me, people have followed them!
Take some professional pride in the job for f**ks sake!
