No that’s fact.
Scary part is me agreeing with my Polar opposite on at least three threads.

Some guys here would happily wear that if it meant getting free breakfast on the other side.

I’d be more worried about the CAs, not many could handle single pilot IFR ops, but that’s not just atlas, the idea of dropping crew members because “AI” would not be comparable with the current 121 system, from crew, training, all the way to HR.

Sitting upfront not paying attention or sitting on the can is not any different.
Some of these cats might as well be sitting on the can the entire flight judging by how much they actually contribute to the operation.
