Milan, and lessons learnt?

I was In milan linate a few days ago. First time.

Interesting thing.

We were given a taxi clearance to the holding point of the active runway. The use of non-standard phrases by ATC meant that this clearance could have been interpreted as a line up clearance to the same runway.
An a/c was on approximately 2 mile final on reaching the holding point.

Weather was nice though!
So we could see what was happening!!

Not sure that issuing prison sentences (as per last report on milan incident) is going to help.

Any thoughts?
