Perhaps I'm misinterpreting what you've written, but how is this
different than a 'real' precision approach?


I believe he is saying that dive and drive gets you broken out sooner,
since you are down at the minimum altitude considerably befor the map.


Perhaps, but that's still the same as a precision approach. If reaching the
MDA at the same moment that one much decide whether or not to continue the
approach (ie the VDP) is a Bad Thing, why isn't it bad on a precision
approach?
