How do you know that the pilot has the current ATIS? Most of them are at least a couple behind, especially when the weather is poor, and does the tower check what letter every inbound has because it can't be part of your scan as it's been passed to approach. Oh and our departure strips don't display what ATIS letter the pilot has anyway.

Just give the wind.
