Default DFW ATC identifying Operational Errors As Pilot Errors?

The vast majority of the errors will be compression errors on final.
Separation falls to 2.9 miles as leading aircraft is just about to cross
the numbers. You need three. Big deal, 582 feet short of the required
15,700 horizontal feet.


Where is a mile 5820 feet sometimes and 5233 1/3 feet at other times?
