It does happen though. And as long as we’re stating in terms of “if they keep doing it” we’re actually stating in terms of infinity. If they keep doing it, eventually there will be a captain that was recently forced upgraded involved. Who wants to be CEO of a company in that mess? Hell, who wants to be a pilot at that company during that mess?
Do you really want to bet its later rather than sooner?
