One of the issues with night flight is being able to maneuver on the surface
of an airport without getting lost and making runway incursions. It can be
a daunting task at a large field. I have always supposed that the FAA
wanted pilots to have some recency of experience in such night maneuvering,
and I have thus interpreted the requirement for full-stop landings to
exclude stop-and-go. I have assumed that they want us to exit the runway
and taxi back for departure. Assuming, of course, that there is a parallel
taxiway. If not, then backtaxi, being very aware of things.

What is the reasoning behind the full stop landing?
