Suppose you have to do a missed approach or just go around. What does
the controller want to see you as? You "own" the runway until you
terminate the code, so maybe the issue is when can the controller have
another plane start an approach.


The controller isn't going to tell you to squawk 1200 if you're still IFR
and your beacon code has nothing to do with "owning" the runway.
