Agreed, Dick,
And as I said in my earlier post, an ETOPS/EDTO challenge is not the appropriate argument to support your problem with 9a.
You need to come up with a better one. The ETOPS/EDTO argument can be shot out of water. Surely you can find something better for your 9a challenge.
If I was looking for one, I’d be looking for an example of significant reduction of important services to rural communities caused by CASA’s apparent adherence to 9a with undue cost/benefit. That would get community support, raise headlines, and ruffle CASA and Government feathers. Isn’t that what you’re after?
