I'm not saying its smart or safe but I think its just like every other demographic of pilot "it depends on the person".
Back in those days did a new hire get a PIC type rating and an ATP ride? I’m not sure, but there’s obviously different practical test standards if so.

Just a hunch, I could be wrong
