Also, with due respect, I’ve not seen anywhere in the rules of this forum where identifying yourself is a requirement to exchange ideas. If it is, please show me where, and I’ll be on my way. If it’s not, also with respect, I’d ask that the moderators only interject as a mod when or if forum rules are violated.
Rules include no flamebait, non-pilots interjecting into airline pilot business very quickly reaches that threshold. Your interests are not our interests in every case. You're welcome to identify yourself (by what you are, not necessarily who you are) and address shared areas of interest. But in this conversation you are a guest, and that's the way it is and always has been (hence Airline Pilot Central, vice Airline Employee Central). I'm sure you have your own forums to engage in heated debates with your own peers. Same for 15-year old pilot wannabes, tolerated but only a little bit.
We're all pilots. What are you, a FA? MX? DX?
