And even if they very accurately and correctly report their whereabouts, that says little about where they'll be 5 minutes later. So the worth of the information is very much limited in time.

Most pilots round here add value by telling FIS not only where they are but also what they intend to do next - I'll then know if their intended path might cross mine.
