Is there a pragmatic reason a pilot would need to know how many a/c between him and the runway?
perfect VMC today with light traffic, no priority requested, and he says, "What sequence am I to the airport?"
Maybe there is a functional reason of which I am unaware, but it did sound from his tone to ask, "Why am *I* (as opposed to the other guys) being delayed?
So approach had to stop their job and sheepishly explain all the traffic on their scope, what he was planning and why he was # 5 or whatever.
Hope I heard it wrong.
