I'm not complaining about being taken off the Star per se Panza.
Its just the odd logic that someone is shortcut only to find 5 minutes later that a dead heat has been created that didn't exist before. Invariably its the one flying the procedure that gets shafted and gets the grand tour of the South China Sea followed by half a dozen vectors back to base.
Surely that creates a lot of extra work for you ATC guys and girls.
