There are several pilots in both seats in FLL that wear entirely too much cologne. With one FO it actually makes it hard to breathe. It’s work not a club, leave your cologne at home. Btw, while a bit odd the captain you mention that is on the list is a good pilot and knows the airplane well and on top of that a pretty nice guy. Not the best representative for spirit but I would have no problem flying with him again.
And for the other ones you describe how does any of those behaviors warrant a no fly. Probably not the best of our co workers but seriously all that stuff seems pretty tolerable.
