Traffic Pattern Altitudes & methodology

traffic pattern altitudes?

the current idea of one altitude for slower piston planes and 1500'agl for turbines makes sense to me.

too many random traffic pattern altitudes would have planes descending onto other planes.

we are talking about airport traffic patterns (as we call them in the USA) and europeans seem to call circuits.
