Captains and First Officers are just cogs in the system, each cog has a purpose.
It’s similar to the relationship between being a pilot and being a “Delta pilot”. “Through these doors walk the best pilots in the world” is the banner in the JFK crew room....compared to who, Qantas? Don’t get me wrong, Delta is my dream job but we aren’t even close.

Simply smart business to wrap up C2019 on time.
Time will tell.

Someone posted on SkyHub/Net a pic of him doing a cabin announcement which clearly showed 4 bars.
