This is not a good safety culture.

I urge pilots to avoid the temptation to increase controller workload deliberately. It negatively impacts safety, adds stress to hardworking man and women who do not need it at present, and impacts the wrong target. Working controllers oppose the FAA stance on this and want it to go away just as fast as pilots do. USMC Flyer is completely right, a good safety culture never results from a punative environment.
