Where's the pain? The approach in use will be on the ATIS, crews generally
have that information before they ever talk to approach control. And it is
a crew, it ain't one guy thumbing through a Jepp binder while trying to
hand-fly the airplane.
I also bet most of the crew know their regular approaches well, and
probably only pull out the plate to satisfy the airline's procedure.
