I do not write the rules, just follow them.
All I would expect on initial call would be callsign, SID identifier (if applicable), passing level and cleared level.
I would not expect "squawking 4455 and Ident" to be included, as it's certainly NOT part of the expected STANDARD phraseolgy .
As BEXIL160 previously posted, ATCOs request idents, and pilots therefore should not offer them.
I will say no more.
Good evening.
