The ivory tower at this time might put that off. Will those in the front office accept a plane that says “I’m not flying until this motor is changed Dave”? I don’t think so. It can be challenging to get a motor changed even during a scheduled maintenance.
It’s really not all about the aircrew. If you’re truly a big picture thinker, maintenance and logistics are included in the cost of operations. I’ve only heard about pilot salaries and revenue per mile.
BTW quoting 2001: A Space Odyssey was mildly disturbing. It brings to mind Terminator and I Robot.

You aren't getting it. And I don't want to discuss why on a public forum.
Learning from others mistakes (and your own) is very beneficial in our job.
Yes, it is disturbing. And it's coming.
