Let me see if I understand....
we are upset at the notion of registering with the FAA in order to fly model aircraft because of a few bad apples. We are contacting our reps to get the onerous new requirements removed as they don't address the problem. Some are stating that they will not comply, but,
if the FAA simply gets the same data from the AMA and then registers us in the same way we will be happy because we don't have to put two different numbers on our models?

Is this right? Am I the only one who sees this as absurd? Please tell me I am wrong and there is more to the strategy...
