Not being actively engaged in performance today, but with a goodly recollection of past projects -

and given the massive computer power on a $1K laptop today -

Why can't the KBOS dispatch desk issue three TO clearances routinely (Tall, short, or no ship) so the front office can choose the appropriate one? This situation must occur often enough at KBOS to warrant this "overkill".
