BTW why is IFR not in the new medical discussion paper for drivers licence?

I just flew 5hrs from Hobart > Adelaide IFR, and it was 10x lower workload, safer, stress-free, less fuel (optimum altitude) and relaxing than doing it VFR. A good 0.5 IMC.

Unfortunately when they release the drivers license medical I'll do that and be banned from operating IFR. Safety will have decreased.

IFR is a training/currency thing, not a physical one.
