So if the local taxi breaks down, or the terminal toilet is blocked, a NOTAM is issued? They are sometimes listed in ERSA too.
These things I can find local alternatives or a suitable bush. Where the hell do I get Avgas? I don't consider an airport that has 50 airliners or more a week to be some outback airport. Flying is all about speed and efficiency. No fuel no speed. Where's the efficiency in hundreds of pilots phoning destination airports every day to cover the rare no fuel event when a simple NOTAM system solves the problem. I think some posters here don't fly often or have someone else worry about phoning ahead every day or just enjoy being part of the destruction of GA.
