He was tasked to do a job, why should he have "walked away" from that task?
Under the rules that pertained and with the information supplied to him at the time he was perfectly legal.
He didn’t have a valid medical so therefore he didn’t have a valid commercial licence. One doesn’t need to go any further than that.
