Do any of the full timers state an abbreviated reason for "request/require"?

Does that brief addition assist the ATC's in a practical way?

I was given a taxi and departure clearance for RWY 35 at Canberra that exceeded my SOP crosswind max. I don't fly often enough to work out how to get the best out of the poor ATC but my natural reply was… "Negative" "Require 20 due to cross-wind maximums". That seemed to be the kind of information that got the job done.
