I am happy with this answer now. Another VFR pilot who was cleared on
the Cortez 1 transition route a month ago asked if he was cleared to
enter Class B (as I probably would have). He was chided by the
controller that he had already been cleared for the Cortez 1 arrival.

Thus I am confident that approval by ATC to fly the Cortez 1
transition route also carries with it approval to enter Class B
airspace.

Which is -EXACTLY- what one would expect if they were to actually
read the damn TAC.


Perhaps. I will admit to not knowing everything and since I have
never flown this type transition route I elected to get clarification
rather than do something stupid as my genetics can predispose me to
do.

I can understand that.

My mode of operation is to respond "Unfamiliar, you want me to..." when
I have doubts as to exactly what ATC/tower/whoever wants/expects me to
do.

In my experience ATC is much friendlier if you admit limited ignorance
about fine details and totally unforgiving if you did no homework before
launching.
