A..1bar..Maybe where you fly might be only training but at Parafield most of the states maintenance for GA plus numerous private aircraft are also based here, and with only 2 app/dep points for aircaft OCTA it can get very close and chummy at times. I would much rather see multiple app/dep tracks at various altitudes thanks, where you do not desend until under instruction and sight of the tower ie class D.
Fair point, couldn't agree more. I'm lucky in that 4 inbound reporting point are available at YBAF.

Two inbound points at airports like Bankstown and Parafield are a far more hazardous situation than restricting aircraft to 6 in the circuit. Also, how will you feel next week when ATC are holding aircraft at these two inbound reporting points?

A lot needs to be considered, SayAgainSlowly summed up the Class D situation nicely.
