Im all for this topic - can be frustrating knowing that some people dont pick up the AIP and read it, yet we all have to share the same airspace. However things can get a little picky like adding an 's' on the end of a word - who cares!
With regard to a post about the old 'double-click' to acknowledge; we have all done it im sure however if you wish to get down to the nitty gritty - whilst reading the AIP i just noticed that in the event of a speachless radar approach this actually means NEGATIVE!! (if the clicks are 1 second each anyway)
For those experienced guys out there a few 'made up' words are fine - you will actually find they use them because they have a bit of SA about what the controllers need/want given certain situations.
Perhaps were taking things to far - spend a bit of time reading the AIP and do your best. Also don't always do what everyone else is doing!
