scifi - you seem very muddled in your criticism of the RMZ introduction. Why should a radar controller (not operator!) now have to keep "us" 3,000ft and 5nm apart as a result of this? It all depends on what service you and others have requested and there would be no obligation to accept anything other than the default Basic Service. Actually, with your co-operation of course, much lower minima could be employed for any traffic under Deconfliction Service. You could even get a close-up view of a Beluga!
HD - it really is unrealistic to comment that "Airbus love to assert their authority". Although the application might be in their name, do you really think that is their motive when the impetus inevitably would have come from the ANSP. And how do you arrive at your assessment of "very few problems"?
