wrap your mind around this :
you may as an FO be called upon to act as PIC in the event the PIC becomes incapacitated, since you would be called upon to this, then why should you not have the minimum requirements that a captain has ?
I understand the low time guy may have the flows and procedures down and can even pass a checkride to the same standards as an ATP, go thru a couple emergencies and some approaches to minimums with a real live miss in the ice and snow and then come back and tell me how well the simulator prepared you for that.
and I will also state you might be sitting in the right seat get warm fuzzy feelings as you're gaining all this experience, but when you move to the left seat you will understand its a different ballgame

See I knew you had it in you, now this post has some substance to cogitate, and I will read it and think on it, does make sense
