Not saying there's no judgement call here, but the irony is that what makes flying so safe (in addition to the amazing overall levels of training & experience of the crews) is a lack of "decision making", i.e. SOPs dictate so many situations that systems design pre-answers the incident response. Obviously there's human components in many of these, but it's the consistent, shared procedure that prevents say, a pilot's awareness of the recent MAX 9 issues from over-influencing their response. We really want largely robotic problem-solving in these situations.
