It is significantly different than all of the surrounding airspace that
Chicago or Minneapolis Center "controls." Centers provide only traffic
advisories to VFR aircraft, within the outer area associated with Class C
airspace approach control facilities such as Madison provide separation
between IFR and participating VFR aircraft.


Interesting. That would seem to be a significant difference that is not well
understood. So Madison Approach has a much higher level of responsibility
with a VFR pilot participating within their extended airspace than a Center
does providing advisories. While my participation is voluntary in both
cases. Also, if I don't like what they are asking me to do, I can decline
and squawk VFR in both cases.

Doesn't seem fair.
