If you're commercial pilot who lets snot snoses into your cockpit because it makes you feel good (either to pin some plastic wings on the tykes, or because it's your way of sticking to the man) then you are as selfish as that idiot Kudrinsky.
If you are talking about how you conduct yourself and your flights on non-commercial private aviation, do whatever makes you feel happy.
