Rat 5: The voice of reason!
I would say though, in reply to:
Does that mean if you briefed it and still screwed it up there would be lesser consequences?
..I'd hope so!
I know you meant it tongue in cheek, but I'd also hope that your company, like mine had a No Blame policy for missed approaches, and if you had briefed for the possibility of a visual, and it hadn't gone to plan, at least there was a plan. This protects your colleague from the "let's have a go" moment.
Other than that, with you all the way.
Double brief: Why get it all into one concise, pertinent easily understandable discussion that someone will actually listen to, when I can ramble on twice, having "lost" the other guy half an hour ago!
