All of us know what happened at KTM, it was always waiting to happen. It will happen again. No amount of willy waving will make a cloudbreak procedure a safe Cat111.
I don't think all of us know what happened at KTM. No doubt RNP AR is not a precision approach for purposes of landing. Such procedures are better than, "cloud break" (I like that colorful phrase) but they are not non-precision IAPs, rather more like LNAV/VNAV at DA.
