Actually ATCO its not such a bad request.
What I believe could use some RT cleansing is the readback of totally un-necessary things such as "expect rwy 12" or "expect further descent in 10 miles" and the like, which occupies air time without cause.
There are a lot of foreign operators in and out of Dubai so RT standards need to be maintained but not over done!
Now, if we could just get a separate clearence delivery and ramp control frequency in Dubai.
