Absolutely. You're right ... I'm sure that this is what the player is thinking. However, I think that the player is missing the big picture: that he/she will not get hired until they have proven that they can get along (socially and musically) with others. The pool of great players is way too big to send in someone who is a drag, regardless of ability.
I'm not aware of anyone else who is in favor of the audition idea, but I'm sure that there are many out there.
