No, the problem is that we always divided the breaks, and had a very good system, which 117 is micromanaging. The FP minimum break is a new requirement. When a flight gets to be short enough, you can't respect that, and the old way of doing things, without screwing someone somewhere, and/or compromising safety.
T brings up a valid problem, and I only see one slightly unpopular solution, and some
really unpopular other solutions, to comply with the constraints.
