Angry Direct tracking

Why are BN ATC STILL not allowing direct tracking?

I know, I know " management directive"..... I just find it completely stupid that a 3am in the morning, on a weekend, with more than likely not another aircraft in the whole of the country at FL240, I can't get direct tracking.

I thought NAS was supposed to make our airspace more efficient!

I am all for things that increase safety, but let be sensible here! Fair enough that I wouldn't expect direct to BN during peak times, or direct to SY during the day, but what about when there is not another aircraft within 500 nm!

just doesn't make sense

Air NOservices.... has never been more appropriate saying.
