Things to put in the "remarks" section of the flight plan

Officially, you are correct. Unofficially, Angel Flights are treated
with a special (and detectable) "consideration".


"Officially" is all that matters.



It seems to me that what kind of navigational equipment the pilot has
on board is "relevant to the flight", and I can think of scenarios
where knowing the pilot has a GPS might help in an emergency involving
failure of one or more instruments, or partial electrical failure.


But you can't articulate any? The question was, "How would knowing a VFR
GPS was aboard help the controller in an emergency?" Providing a few of
those scenarios would answer the question, but simply stating that you know
of a few scenarios does not.



Let me ask you, Steven, how could it HURT the controller to have this
information?


It wouldn't. It wouldn't HURT the controller to have the pilot's height and
weight information either but I bet you don't put that in remarks when you
file.
