It was never meant in a CRM sense... More like a, "hey you are going to empty lavs and polish leading edges, buy newspapers, get the plane ready, and the captain will show up for the flight" I can see where you're coming from though. They always had a good policy of mentoring. Everyone gets typed, and when you fly you do so from the left seat.
