especially when the place you are likely to hit one - where they do their GH work - is outside the MATZ anyway...

And as I said above, the MATZ is a pointless and dangerous thing because mil controllers think it's CAS and act accordingly, and civilians think it doesn't matter because it's not CAS. I think it's an accident waiting to happen, though I don't suppose there have been any actual accidents.
