Are you saying you don't do a MAUW test flight in your training?

That is exactly what he is saying. It's also pretty normal these days

having anyone in the back seat or coming anywhere near gross weight.


Not here not ever. You get a rating you have to demonstrate at least
one MAUW circuit.
And the idea of crosscountry flying without weighing the pax is
foolish to say the least
