Who has a night rating?

But I've never really understood the point of the training XC requirements
for the commercial certificate.


I can understand XC requirements and training requirements, but I can't make
head or tail out of the wording:
"10 hours of solo flight in a single engine airplane ON THE AREAS OF OPERATION
LISTED IN 61.127(b)(1)... which includes... a cross country flight..."

61.127(b)(1) includes stalls, slow flight, navigation, takesoffs and landings..
stuff like that. Well, (except for stalls) how else do you fly? And as for
stuff like slow flight and emergency procedures, you're supposed to do this ON
YOUR CROSS COUNTRY?

Of course not, but that's not what the rules read.
