Perhaps I'm missing something - and I'm not being snarky, but if OP had simply answered "YES," which true, to GA would this thread exist?

Honestly, I have zero issues with an airline being overly cautious and it's logical with the way rapid speed devices/tech change. Safety v Convenience wins every time. It reminds me of a recently flight out of MSP when pilot said an error light wouldn't go out after resetting and determined it was best to return to terminal for a new plane. Cue the groans. Yeah, if the pilot doesn't wanna fly it, I'll follow him/her out the door. I've had this happen at MSP 3 times during past 2 years and the entire process took 60 - 75 min (return to gate, deplane, new gate, board and depart), resulting in < 1 hr delay in arrival.
