Does anyone else find it absolutely routine for Air India pilots to say "confirm?" at the end of readbacks?

Or is it just me, confirm?
Gosh Ferris, I bet this 'Term' NEVER ends......You are right that the majority of this operator's pilot have this on the tip of their tongue.....so rest assured it's not only you

At times they give a good readback to be concluded by "CONFIRM" 90% of the time...,,,, or else going on stand after landing, advising you that they are on stand....

I do not know what their sop's are, but still I too ignore them when the latter is transmitted....

We as ATC are 'Lucky' not to have Speakers/Headphones coupled with a Screen, because we would surely see n' hear from a Wobbling Head..
