This is a totally different case to AH on the Hunter in my belief, as he will have spent thousands of hours at the start of his career on fast jet types so has a huge bank of experience to draw on, albeit not in the Hunter. However, his much more frequent Airbus hours in recent years are pretty unlikely to have denigrated this earlier experience in the way
I'll add that as mentioned briefly in the AAIB report in addition to his Airbus and light aircraft (propeller) flying AH continued to fly various marks of the JP - not fast jets I'd agree but not 90 knot bug smashers either.
