My point which may have been lost is that even though they are weak IFR they admit it and are teachable.

The point was one group shows up weaker with instrument training and experience. Most will overcome it to varying degrees, right?
I say again, folks from every background cover the whole spectrum of weak and strong abilities and personalities. It’s honestly all good.
