Rather stupid question, why do you think?
A stupid response to a valid question.

I've been told off for not checking in with the ATIS code!
It seems superfluous when :
Pilot spends time listening to the ATIS.
Pilot says: xx Approach ...... Information Quebec / I have the numbers.
ATC then says: Altimeter/QNH xxxx. Runway in use xx.

Pilot then has to read back the altimeter and runway in use again .......
