However, I see what you are getting at. You may well have submitted the FPL well in advance, but want to go early. It is likely that whoever wrote the guide innocently assumed that pilots would actively manage their FPLs, rather than taking a punt that ATC will have your FPL when you call for start/taxi. This might work outside CAS, but inside CAS, with electronically managed flight records, it is unlikely.
