I doubt it, at at least SBAS will mitigate the affects of the stupid GNSS approach design.
Why is that? Can't you fly them? They are pretty straight forward....
Having a fix part way down the final of an NPA approach is plain dumb and potentially confusing. Most operators and schools I know of use and or teach the constant descent profile, which is easy to monitor with a single fix but potential confusing and dangerous with two fixes.
