Yes? So? Meaning?

Most of those psycho-tests probably say more about the people designing and using them, as about the people being tested.

The Lufthansa DLR test is even more difficult I've been told, but apparently even that wasn't difficult enough for one particular person...

It's all part of the airline industry's shell game of washing their hands in innocence in case of a smoking hole in the ground and allows the CEO to stand in front of a copy/paste propaganda media and spin the story into something like; "...despite our extremely stringent selection criteria and process...," and "...despite of our robust fatigue risk management...," and "...we could not have seen this coming...," and ...aviation is still one of the safest means of travel..."

It's all blah blah blah, because in the end there's always one convenient group of scapegoats: those magenta line following, min rest/fuel max duty, pay4training, pay4uniform, pay4carpark, pay2fly co-pilot or the babysitter with four stripes sitting to his/her left.
