I was floored when I once walked into the DTW CPO with a few clarification questions and they (collectively) knew nothing about anything.
I believe that the DAL standard is that if you are invited to interview, you are qualified.

Many there are great, but there are some absolute crazies. It behooves the brand greatly to screen them and weed out the ones that shouldn't have been flying DL pax in the first place.

No one is banking on Delta's special blessing.
