> Most of the radio calls today (>95%) are bog standard verbal exchanges about things that should not require any humans in the loop. Anything to with weather is just numbers that can and should be be exchanged digitally. Much faster, less room for error. There should be zero confusion about what the altimeter settings are at a particular airport, what the active runway is, where the wind is coming from, etc. ACARS and CPDLC handle a lot of this. A change of altitude/flight level can be sent from ATC, accepted by a pilot, and updated in the autopilot without anyone speaking over VHF.
