^ That. Some people like exciting and then find themselves in positions for which they hadn't planned. Part of survival is avoiding the excitement that gets you unexpectedly and catastrophically dead. There is a saying in aviation that there are Old pilots and there are Bold pilots, but there are no Old Bold pilots.

Many folks do not like having their work checked, they take it as an insult and are easily offended. Most if not all the pilots I've known did not mind if you checked/double-checked their work. We're all human and mistakes are made; in aviation mistakes can get you killed. I always enjoy boring when I'm flying.
