Yes, and rightly so too...Don't you care if a decimal point appears randomly in your calculations???? What is different with an apostrophe? Nothing to do with Police, just Professionalism, and survival...
But the original post raises a very valid point. If the ATIS or verbal report only ever states "wet", even when there is a huge CB dumping thousands of tons of water onto the runway the pilot on approach is given no information whatsoever re a possibly contaminated runway, which is actually a life-threatening event. Instead he has to extrapolate the possibility of this from non-specific implications of %Cb or +Ra in the METAR, and decide between a potentially hazardous landing or an expensive (company contentious) diversion.
Pretty unsatisfactory, really. Not so? Apostrophes notwithstanding.
