The trust in crew is admirable, but is it always supported?

Crew delays in evacuating the aircraft were experienced in the QF1 at BKK, Asiana at SFO, SQ's wing on fire at Changi, Saudia...

Here's a video clip of the SQ wing on fire but no evacuation was ordered: https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...rgency-landing

Where is the advocate for the passenger?
