I made my sweeping generality by reading all of
your postings on this thread and I believe they speak for themselves. My
point about you is that you make accusations which question the integrity
and capability of the un-named individuals in a forum where they are not
present to defend themselves, and you do it without having all of the facts
to hand.

Your inference of the nature of the words I posted is inaccurate.
Most of what I posted were alternate viewpoints from those apparently
held by the crew. My intent was not to challenge the PIC's decision,
but to expose elements of the flight that may have been overlooked.

As you point out, no one has all the facts. Even the crew lacked
_all_ the facts. That is what made a precautionary landing more
prudent than continuing the transcontinental flight without all the
facts.
