Agree re the pettiness over the 'label'.

At an airport near me (yes, known to foxy), I have often heard a huffy sounding xxx RADAR! when someone has addressed them as 'xxx approach'.

Since the radar is rather prone to falling over, when they are indeed known as Approach, it seems too picky, even for a pedant like me.
