: "Vectors just to ease the controllers duties"? What do you mean by that?
: If you're in an area where ATC must provide separation vectoring is a valid
: tool to achieve it. If you're not in an area where ATC must provide
: separation then there's no reason for ATC to vector you.

... and yet they routinely do it if you happen to talk to them.

True, but in fairness (and in my experience) it is usually due to
traffic. Which, after all, is the only reason I am talking to them in
the first place.
