professional pilots arguing about how to deal with incapacitation....and we have the same disagreements over how to evacuate,..how to reject....etc etc.
Interesting isn't it....after all this time,all this training,we still don't all agree on common procedures...
To be fair I rather suspect most if not all of the professional pilots and other aviation professionals here know every situation is different and therefore there's no unique solution to the problem in question. In these sort of situations I'm reminded of a comment made by the late Neil Armstrong about decision making - he once advocated reserving "the right to be wishy washy".

As to this topic whether the only individual who strongly advocated a one size fits all solution (stand on the brakes, call for help, and and sue anyone who doesn't comply) is an aviation professional and/or has a professional pilots licence is AFAIK unknown.
