On CTAF:
Announcing that you're "Clear of the active".

How about the fact that uncontrolled fields don't have an "active"?

A pilot can choose any runway he or she feels is best at an uncontrolled
field. I personally don't see a big problem with a quick "7-7-Lima is
clear of two-seven", as you really can't be sure if a waiting aircraft
can see you, especially if this is you're first trip into a destination.

I'm with ya' on the other stuff.
