The airline pilot putting themselves in risky situations for training value is doing that in a simulator, not while flying the line.
Your arguments are about pilots training in controlled conditions that don't put others at unnecessary, non-consensual risk.
I confined my upthread answer to airline pilots because that’s what’s familiar and relevant to most readers and seems most directly relevant to risk-reduction for passengers/non-participants. (We don’t do risky training exercises with pax on board either.)
