"Exposed as frauds", by whom? You, I think not.
It is you who refuses to post a legitimate reply to what you see as safety or operational discrepancies. The "industry" has developed wonderfully accurate, safe and tested procedures for overwater, not to mention your other hobby horses, that have stood the test of experience. If these are insufficient, in your view, post something positive to improve our procedures. The information posted here is standard, military, airline, corporate, where are our failings?
Using ZFW is an industry standard, pilots don't need to add up each passenger and bag to check the work of dispatch; just as I could spot an error in the load plan climbing the ladder in the C-5. No experienced pilot needs to do manual flight plans. Where there have their been errors, like EK at YMML, it is rare and investigated and corrected.
The record speaks for itself.
