Never said it was. But it is an environment in which proper comm procedures are pretty important. Those procedures are clearly spelled out and day after day so called professional pilots choose to ignore them.
So, some of us can keep using "bro" style trucker comm and we can continue to have threads whining about controllers who (while they may be dicks) are understandably tired of listening to bad radio procedures. Seems like an easy solution.
