Just to be clear I'm not a fixed wing pilot and definitely not a fast mover pilot but I am a helicopter pilot and I do fly a French built helicopter which most of the buttons and warnings are labeled in French and some in English . Every aircraft we fly we have to get type rated on which we are trained and tested on both theory and practical on all systems as well as emergency procedures applicable to that aircraft because they all have their differences, I'm sure that is the same as fixed wing especially military jets. Basically amber warning light divert immediately and land as soon as practically possible and red light just put it down now because it's all bad and prepare for the worst.
In regards to the P.CAB light, I can see ejecting on the ground with an insurecure cockpit could disrupt how the canopy is ejected and could result in injuries or a fatality. As for cabin altitude exceeds 30,000ft, a cabin that loses pressure or doesn't hold pressure is classed as an emergency as the pilot is at risk of suffering symptoms associated with the 'bends' (release of nitrogen in the bloodstream) for example, rapid rate of climb in unpressurised aircraft to altitudes in excess of FL180 or continued flight in aircraft at altitude following failure of aircraft pressurisation system or the favorite hypoxia. I can hear now the yells of but the pilot has a mask which is true, but there are always redundancies for all systems in all aircraft but manufactures will always have a 100% solution to save the pilot and aircraft as there are so many different unforeseen scenarios that can be thought of and common sense isn't that common.
The warming in my observations has two reactions applicable, don't eject on the ground with an insurecure cockpit and secure cockpit now. Depressurised aircraft at altitude rapid decent required now!!!
