Ah the irony.
The thread was started by someone pointing out (correctly) that it was unnecessary to read back a particular word. A single f*cking word.
I point out that it is objectively unnecessary to read back QNH in a particular set of circumstances, and the answer is it must be read back because that’s what the rule book says.
It all make perfect sense. It must be a consequence of my poor airmanship and a lawyerly obsession with strict compliance with rules.
