If we are going to put folks into the RHS of a B738/A320 with 250hrs TT, then I'd say there's a valid argument for making all of that time as relevant as possible.
That's not to say I agree with this practice - that's a discussion for a different thread - but as that's the reality here in EASA land, there's a case for providing training which reflects that. If the Captain did become incapacitated, being able to safely handle an airliner in otherwise normal ops will be more useful than being competent in dealing with an emergency in an SEP.
I'd actually be more concerned about low time pilots flying P2 in a small regional turboprop such as a metroliner.
