This also can make the scoring software work properly. The Aussie
scoring automation has a flaw I'm told. It assumes you are going to
the next turnpoint when the distance to it starts decreasing once you
are in the first TP area. If you think about this this ain't
necessarily so and can result in lots of distance not credited.

Marking the point where the pilot has made the decision and doing the
measurements between these points avoids this problem.
