Talk to the CD. Talk to the CD. Talk to the CD....Or, these days, talk

There is nothing in the rules that mandates calling unrestricted MATs.
Long MATs, restrictions on using or reusing close-in turnpoints,
restrictions on number of turnpoints, etc. etc. are all in the CD
toolkit for avoiding the mind-numbing churn around three points in
gliding distance of the home airport.
