Some guys are just ham-fisted, bad pilots...hiding the fact that they've been in over their head their whole flying life. Never used experience and common-sense to get out of a jam in their career, and would never think of gleaning knowledge or technique from a lower humanoid (F/O).
They attempt make up for it by boning-up on useless legalese from their (frequently outdated) expansive book knowledge.
