The pilot of that aircraft had as much interest in landing safely as anybody else on the aircraft. Do you seriously think the pilot would risk his own life to avoid the company having a 1 - 2 hour delay?

Do you really have any evidence for this, beyond a gut feeling? I am no defender of the airlines, but in this case there is little evidence beyond your admittedly frightening experience on one particular flight.
