Thats assuming a suicidal pilot is willing for it to be deemed suicide. However there are many reasons why a pilot may want to hide a suicide - family reputation, insurance payout etc.
In your opinion, would a FO definitely be aware of this alternative way int the cockpit? And could this entry be 'locked" in some way by the operator?
