Overall, I see the cat and mouse game that the big flight schools play.
With that said, if anyone can recommend a smaller "mom & pap" school, I'd appreciate it. thx.
For the recommendation...where are you located?
For the airlines "counting" something. They can count whatever they want. Some don't want to "count" safety pilot time. Some only want PIC time as the time you are the one responsible for the aircraft...not just sole manipulator of an airplane you are rated in. They can count what they like.
What you may put in your logbook, OTOH, is different. Also, keep in mind that a typical "Frasca" in a training environment is an FTD, not a "simulator". The difference can be subtly huge.
