Re F/Os disconnecting at 100', you've answered your own question: 'pilots from Cessnas straight into highly automated jets'.
We used to spend a couple of years flying turboprops - learning how to fly in commercial operations and airspace before going onto big automatic jets.
Nothing wrong with automatics, but you need to know how to use them and you need the fundamentals in the background.
