In the P-56 example, you violate P-56 and file an ASRS and you will still get violated but may not lose your tickets for 120 days but you darn sure will get violated and that will show up on your record. Do the same and file an ASAP and the violation goes into a company ASAP file that nobody outside of you, the ASAP company, union and FAA reps will ever see and it will not show up on a PRIA check.
Again, you are making this an either or proposition. It isn't and never has been.
