Why should you not have to demonstrate a procedure which is part of IFR flying?
If you cannot demonstrate it, maybe you shouldn't hold an instrument rating.
In the company I work for, there are a few things that are tested that are not nessecarily part of the standard renewal. Why? Because they figure that if you can't do it, then perhaps you need some further training to ensure that when the **** hits the fan, you can!
Just stop your whinging and do it.
