Exactly. We operate SOP. We are pilots not engineers. We use the Airbus approved manual to operate the aircraft safely, we don't write nor rewrite, nor selectively quibble the clear meaning of the manual.

"The PIC had seen the engineer resetting the FAC CB on the ground. Having experience of witnessing and performing FAC CB reset, the PIC might consider that he “fully understand the consequences”. Resetting the FAC CB on the ground and in flight has different consequences. The FAC CBs were not included in the list of the CB allowed in OEB and TDUs to be reset in flight. The consequences of resetting FAC CBs in flight are not described in Airbus documents. It requires good understanding of the aircraft system to be aware of the consequences."
