You are right about low level obstructions.... but look carefully at these. Subtract the AGL heights from the AMSL and the answers are all below 200 feet. Anyone who has a rule 5 exemption down to 200 feet is going to be looking out of the window (probably with NVG at night).
My point is not that the obscure stuff should not be there, but that the operationally critical information for the vast majority of fliers is made prominent and easy to check while the obscure (largely procedural) stuff appears but in a less prominent are more easily filtered way.
How do you defend the Trigger Notam for Doncaster in a VFR brief for Southampton? Or the utterly useless one about the metal plating? Or the airfield opening times?
What am I supposed to do about the met flight? Plot all those points on a chart and keep clear (of most of southern England) for the whole day? Unless people can act on the information, there is no point in publishing it.
It just goes on and on.
