Bingo, BoilerUp. My last day hauling checks came with 4 approaches (raw data, 2 non-precision, all to minimums) single pilot with no FD or HSI (cross-checking a precessing DG with a tiny CDI is REAL raw-data, you sissies!). I did it all without blinking, but would seriously think twice about the same now.

I'm one of the guys who loves to turn off the toys and fly the E-Jet like a big 172, but my proficiency level at raw-data hand flying is far different now than when I did it several legs every day. Kudos to the CA here for actually exercising that authority.
