Don't feed the troll Kobra. Mx doesn't know the IFR system IN THE
REAL WORLD, only VATSIM and I'd hate for this group get polluted like
RAS and RAP. As you know flying a real airplane is quite different
then sitting front of a desktop computer simming

To answer your question, could be many factors that you raise, but
maybe a call to tracon may give you some enlightment?

It does seem odd that ATC would ask for a complete course reversal at
a VFR altitude. Did you gandar at Flight Aware to see what your track
look like in relation to your next fix and airway?

Like you, when I am up even remotely close to the ADIZ, IFR is the way
to go :-))
