If you think radar is bad.

You should see the fun and games with procedural.

You can get multiple aircraft on the instrument approach who have taken a basic service because they didn't have a clue what the other one was with the controller passing traffic info to none native speakers who think they have been cleared for the procedure. With the controller more than likely with thier eyes shut and hand on the crash button.

If the controller hadn't asked them what type of service they wanted and confused matters they would have been more than happy to potter into the hold and do as thier told.
