Even on 787s, Boeing knows why they want both pilots to think and do things in the same way, not allowing conflicting data or inputs.
You all really really (really) need to stop with that nonsense.
Have you ever stepped foot in an airbus cockpit ?

If you had seated at a pilot's seat, you would have immediately seen that.. you CAN see the other pilot's sidestick from your seat !
