What I meant to say was that "judgement" training should start early.
Starting out, I added "student pilot" to my call sign. Once I stopped
doing
that, I can remember a time when I responded to an odd request with
"Unable,
student pilot."

I think that all instructors attempt to do that, with varying results; and I
agree that "unable" needs to be part of every pilot's vocabulary. It seems
to be the real-life version of a "pause button" and excessive use indicates
a need for additional training; but it can help in avoiding dangerous
conditions.
