Speaking as a "greenie":
Would you claim that this Air Transport Pilot was so fatigued that he didn't recognize the runway - but alert enough that had he been provided ILS he could have landed safely?
I am willing to believe that some (perhaps most) ATPs would prefer ILS over visual, but I am not ready to believe that so few of them find visual such a handicap that it could be characterized as "not a good idea".
