My own profession was medical, though an amateur interest in flying. I found over the years that though we docs are frequently a rude and condescending lot, when there is a serious emergency, or perhaps a surgical case goes unexpectedly difficult, the professional in us takes over. A calm demeanor, and willingness to do what is necessary in cooperation with everyone else involved usually leads to the best outcome.

I'm pleased to see that you professional pilot folks have that same sort of ingrained mindset. It serves you well when it's needed, and the rest of us also.

Isn't that the true definition of "professional" in whatever field of endeavor?
