Very much agree. I’ve met vertically separated but opposite direction traffic on a random track (defined as such because the timings expired) as we approached Shannon FIR eastbound and encountered the start of the early westbound wave..Personally I SLOP on a random track unless I have a compelling reason
not to do so.
