The list goes on, high hours doesn't make someone a better pilot. Its all about the quality of those hours and how you got there. I know someone who is flying 121 who has NEVER been in icing and flies mostly in VMC. Does that make him a better pilot because he has a lot of hours flying an autopilot with a FMC?
And oh wow, you were a flight instructor so that makes you a better pilot? What about the pilot I know who never did primary flight instruction but rather BFR's, IPC's, and commercial certificates? He isn't prepping people for solos.
I know you are new to the airlines and ASA, but just a word of advice. Change your attitude! Some of the line Captains here and instructors won't put up with that. They have send home a guy a two just in the recent few new-hire classes because of their attitude. And Im hearing there are already a few in class right now with the "know it all" attitude. Nevertheless, welcome aboard.
