I don't think the north types realize the limited roll that fleet captains play.
The airline is line oriented and much of the standards stuff comes from the LCP side of things. Of course the way this push without numbers stuff was designed and implemented I've got to wonder....

Both the 767 and 757 have a nose up moment on speedbrake deployment on touchdown. The reversers deploying help counter act that... the most critical I found was when the auto speedbrake was deferred and you have to make sure the other guy doesnt just yank it back. Things could get interesting quick then!

If you are a fnw pilot then the answer to that is that "if you have to ask then you probably wouldn't understand"....More acutely is the observation that there are virtually no fnw management pilots left at delta in anything resembling a position higher than base chief pilot, they have all been culled out.

It has been a while since I flew the 767, but it seems there was very little margin at max landing weight, set up for a single engine approach... 9 inches comes to mind ... and that was a Boeing uber test pilot on his fourth cup of coffee, knowing it was coming.
If, say, a domestic jet was involved with no way to dump fuel and there was reason to believe the other engine had damage (ie reason to land sooner rather than later) ... .
