Ridiculous. The day a pilot thinks that increased experience will not improve safety, is the day he/she should hang it up.
To the day I retired I was always learning and that helped me be a better and safer pilot for the next flight.
I will also freely admit that on more than one occasion my experience learning curve increased when I said to myself "Hey dummy, don't ever do that again!".
