With all due respect, the PTS exists so that we do not have to "put up
with the pet peeves of the various examiners".

It also exists so that training can be uniform.

If applicants can be held to the strictures of the PTS, there is no
reason that examiners should not also.

When we sit back and allow government representatives to impose their
personal wishes on applicants that are contrary to the standards, we
all lose.

The cost of asserting your rights is usually worth whatever it turns
out to be.

Just my personal opinion.
