Have a look at the Dubai CTA - in particular, the distance between the DXB and SHJ STAR tracks, seeing the problem yet?
Offset on STARS? Come on You're not really an Airline pilot. ARE YOU?? They'll put anybody in a seat these days. Yes Offsets should always be flown where available. Your passenger's deserve it especially when the seat belt sign is OFF!!!
I think dcbus that Guy D'ageradar (ATC I believe) is trying to say that there isn't room for offsets on the STARs...

Hardly surprising around DXB!
