Mutt, John_T,
Please feel free to harp on, and harp on, and then when you retire, leave a computer virus that keeps on harping on about VMCG. Some things cannot be over-emphasised.
SR71,
You make a good point about standby instruments if we were to introduce EAS as standard. It wouldn't take much of a notice to crews if reverting to CAS on standby instruments. High speed limits would need no notification, CAS is more conservative, for low speed operations a simple "Add 20 Kt to CAS indications above F/L 250 (or something similar) would suffice.
Regards,
Smokey
