And that is why we are politely ignoring the POI. He has other crazy ideas
at times too.

Second, the minumums don't change. No need to get lawerly on me.

Well, this issue was raised and put to bed on my airline quite a few years
ago. So, you see it one way at your carrier, my carrier saw it
differently. ALPA's All-Weather Flying Committee viewed it at the time as
a second DA, and FAA Washington agreed at the time.

Third, the FAA muddies the waters by creating a situation where you can
go below DH to 100' above the touchdown zone without actually having the
runway insight. How you manage that is clearly technique, and not
something I would even think of attempting in a single pilot aircraft.
Even with two pilots, the technique must be briefed and coordinated or it
is likely to be more dangerous than just going missed.

I wouldn't even know how to apply it on a Cat I ILS or NPA.
