Actually, my comparison of auto insurance is spot on: humans make mistakes. I have no idea of what the error rate is for data entry folks, but I'm sure somewhere it exists. While those working in a room in OakCity won't kill anyone with their mistakes, it could prevent me from getting a job (or at least make me jump through hoops to get a lower seniority number).
Look, I'm not angry with your position. I simply prefer to be proactive rather than hoping litigation will prove my point.
Do what you want. I have given my argument supporting my opinion. There is no "correct" way. I always see an optometrist prior to my medical to insure my eyes are still 20/20 rather than showing up at my ME and having him tell me I need glasses.
For the record, I'm not paranoid. But I do remember playing "Telephone" in elementary school. The reality is that every time a human receives and passes on information, there is a degradation in accuracy.
To me, spending a few bucks (if I recall correctly, $3 plus five cents per page) is a whole lot better insurance for my next career step than hoping everything is correct, and suing if it isn't.
You have officially taken this to the next level. Which wasn't the intent. "Confidence in my counsel" sounds like a 3rd grader. Your comparison to auto is just as pathetic. The FAA says their input error is roughly 1 in 10,000. It sounds like OCD has set in for you. I guess you win. I'm done.
