Some captains just have wierd idiosyncracies. Part of being a good copilot is to just deal with it. Some day you will be the boss and get to set the tone.
Part of being being a good man is not putting up with the blowhard in the left seat.
Even if it is in the manual there is nothing wrong with doing it your way and telling the old fart to stuff it. I told a guy the other day "When it's my leg it is my aircraft.......questions?????" He didn't like it but I decided then I would set the tone for the trip.
As far as heading control if he marrys the bug and gets pissed off whe you don't; when it is his leg, turn the bug out 180 degrees everytime he does it and laugh at him. See what he says to that.
