Finally, at last, someone else can see the wood for the trees, ask the most pertinent question and state the blindingly obvious.

Someone started discussing GPS FMC approaches bringing you to the correct line up. Qeh? The line up is visual! There are 2 pilots, 2 brains, 2 sets of eyes = fail passive, but still workable. A GPS line up would not have made it fail operational.
