Lhr AtC

Questions for the smart guys;
Why everytime we get a clearance req. in LHR we need to specify the type of A/C (B 747/400?). Does CX despatch files otherwise (ATC knows how to read the flight plan I assume)??

After departure we give the name of the SID (Brookman6J or F)
Can ATC look on their paper strip and read what dpt.we are doing?why the double redundancy

why upon arrival they ask; say type of A/C. Can they look on the screen and read the type of A/c next to the SSR code? At times I wish to reply
ehm, Cx 250 is a PA200 seneca!!!!

Why is only in LHR??
No anymosity just curiosity.


Cheers
