Sounds right. They are having us do the written test for data points, it doesn't actually count.

Lol…”take this test…it doesn’t count so you’ll have to do another test later. But don’t fail it or we’ll hold it against you”

One of the real senior instructors told us we were supposed to be all AQP a couple years ago but FAA let it slide due to Covid. Now we’re like the only major airline that isn’t AQP and the FAA said, “you will be AQP by early ‘24 or you’ll get shut down”.
