The counter to that is if there isn't a QRC then there is nothing to hang you on for not doing. Stabilize (be a pilot) and fly the plane.

How many pilots do you know that have been fired, suspended or disciplined over an unintentional action in the airplane? Aren't ALL the Hawaii flameout guys still flying? How about the 400 in SFO? Did any of those guys get fired?
