They basically do.

Pilots ignore them because they think they're infallible.

Also, the gp said 'disinterested'. That doesn't do it, it's disorientation. And it's weird.
I did some IFR training for my VFR. My head was about 15 degrees off from the instruments in the foggles (fogged goggles so you can only see instruments). And not always in the same direction, though I was typically 15 degrees to the right.

I didn't even think about that.

Radar cameras could easily see through the fog/rain/snow. Fewer 'controlled flight into terrain' accidents.
If they can see the leading edges of the wings, perhaps fewer icing incidents as well.

This should actually improve flight safety by eliminating the shortcomings that windows have.
