The IAA and jep have given the ok for the new system so i doubt there is anything wrong with it.
I take it the IAA gave approval for the old system as well. You and others have admitted here you frequently flew with out of date plates. That is crazy and probably illegal. It's a bit like using last week's TAFs for today.
Taking offline plates at the commander's discretion seems a bizarre interpretation of any sensible ops manual.
The new system you propose as being great and liked by the crews is the same systems most operators around the world use. Nothing new there. That is how the Jeppesen system is supposed to work.
My criticism is of what went before and your dismissal of it as FR bashing is somewhat indicative of FR. There is a lot of FR bashing here and elsewhere but sometimes it's justified.
