Those who know what they're talking about have no issues here, so maybe the ignorant can just keep quiet!
Yet the fact is that a number of passengers were placed at increased risk, due to an un-briefed failure mode, resulting in the aircraft suffering a heavy landing with no-one in control of the thrust levers.

That is not acceptable and I am sure steps have already been taken to mitigate the risk, but it did happen and I don't think there is room for macho comments about 'the ignorant', as those conducting the flight were proven to be ignorant of the risk and the response plan, to the degree that it was not briefed.
