How is it that pilots have no business flying a plane to it's ceiling?
Seems
like pretty reasonable behavior to me.


I'm not blaming the pilots. I just want to find out if flying a plane
at its maxmimum operating altitude is standard practice, or if it's
considered dangerous.

For example, the top speed of a car could be 120 mph, but it would be
dangerous to drive it at that speed because a sudden movement in the
steering wheel could cause the car to flip over.


Obviously you have never driven your car 120mph.
