Default Ameriflight flow

Just not sure how practical it is for someone who has only flown single pilot turboprop to a crewed wide body. It’s a huge training and experience gap and I’m curious if that’s even possible to do while maintaining your sanity and not to mention your clean record.
I believe some have made it through but I’m not sure of the exact count. It is perhaps a different kind of operation but not really that much different. The 1500 hr navy helo pilots that’s go through 757/767 initial at Delta have it a lot worse.
