The finish line has been in the rules forever - doesn't get used much.

The reason for this is that Sports Class doesn't have that option and it makes sense that all concurrent classes are using the same finish.

90% of our contests include a Sports Class, so effectively the finish line is history.

Exactly, when a finish line is used in conjunction with a steering point
it is a much safer option than a finish cylinder. The steering point
should be the same for all classes, or at least in the same area so that
all traffic is coming to the airport from the same direction and gives
the pilot the option of doing a flying or rolling finish...
