Not disagreeing with you here but low timers need the pear shaped training to get that experience passed down and yes, not trained just to spin dials. Learning experiences do get passed down if it is brought to the table and someone has to be there able to pick it up after you lay it down for them. I believe this is the short cut. Example, this happen to me one time... and I learned...
Flight time is pointless if things never turned pair shaped for a pilot. However, a pilot can be trained what to do to get out of each situation.
