i.e. if in 1930 someone decided that there should be a 1,000 foot vertical separation between IFR and VFR, that separation must go on forever. That is, “learn the system and flow with it” rather than look at other modern aviation countries which have changed to a 500 foot separation standard with no reported safety implications.
The separation standard between an IFR beech baron and a VFR C182 is 500ft.

Dick, How can you advocate changing separation standards if you don't know them. Serious question!

It is the military’s job to comment when their actions are causing unnecessary risk.
