Benefits of EASA/Part FCL

So, here in the UK, we have had some time to assess the effect of introducing part-fcl. As yet, I haven't seen too much that has improved safety or efficiency but I'm probably biased!

So if you are aware of any benefits please post them here (along with what is worse) I'll start it off with:

Better:
  1. Your licence doesn't expire.

Worse:
  1. Crappy one sheet licence in a tacky plastic case
  2. Multiple copies of licence paperwork need to be made and distributed
  3. Examining other Europeans now can't be done without going to their authority for a briefing first
