But as others have said, if time and money is limited, might be better spent on more career-specific training.

Also careful taking GA checkrides which you don't have to take... a random GA bust will follow you forever, and impact your career progression.
This is some of the goofiest advice I've heard for years in the airlines...

No, many airline pilots have failed a checkride somewhere along their progression. Don't fear a failure. If you're in the industry chances are the guy sitting next to you has failed something. I mean don't be lazy and not put in the effort, but Jesus this is crap. Just be humble when it comes up in the interview.
