Noel makes some interesting points and has obviously given the topic some careful thought.
I do not think that the AT is by any means an unfair test, if used properly.
The rules appendix, section 10.3 provides guidelines covering task calling.
It calls for a balanced variety of tasks to be called.
It also gives useful guidance as the when each type of task can and should be used.
I suspect many CD's have not read and applied these guidelines well.
Those commenting on US tasking philosophy would do well to read what the rules writers have intended and communicated.
Noel- thank you for constructively commenting for all to share.
