I think it's more likely that they're just getting with the times. Frankly, I'm surprised that in 2024 there are financial institutions that don't already require binding arbitration. A clause like this has been in my membership agreement for many years or even decades with both of my CUs and...
Sure, nothing's 100% foolproof. But if you can see that 15 PA28s and C172s got the exact same routing in the last 90 days and no other routes were assigned, you can probably safely wager $5 that's what you're gonna get in your PA28 or C172, too.
As always, YMMV.
Foreflight, Fltplan.com, and probably plenty of others will tell you what route ATC normally assigns for a given airport pair, so it doesn't have to be a surprise, even if you personally haven't flown it before.
I almost always get the route I filed. About half the time, I receive my clearance: "Cleared to [destination] as filed." Otherwise I receive it as read out in detail, but with no changes from what I filed. I don't know why it's sometimes one and sometimes the other. Maybe some controllers...

Why do you seem to think there must be a dependency between "magnitude of turbulence" or "direction of turbulence" with surface winds or winds aloft?
A pot of boiling water is turbulent, but it's not moving laterally. The same thing can happen with air in the sky.

Some of his presentation is clickbait-y ("Stay tuned for the shocking reason...") and his voice sometimes comes across as a little strident, but if you can filter that out his technical commentary is usually thoughtful. Unlike many other YT aviation content creators, Hoover actually has...
Since the advent of ADSB, maybe it wouldn't be as hard to "challenge after the fact" as it was 20 years ago.
Probably not likely during a job interview, but if the FAA or an insurance company ever really wanted to dig in, nowadays they probably could.
