Why does nobody talk about the new FAA advisory circular on fiber optic inspection scopes?

I had to reference it last month during a pitot-static check on a King Air in Tulsa, and it cleared up a ton of confusion about acceptance criteria. Has anyone else run into this yet?

Finally, someone said it. That advisory circular saved me a huge headache on a recent inspection. Our shop was arguing about connector end-face scratches for weeks, and the new guide just spelled it out plain as day. It's one of those updates that actually makes sense for once.

Scratches on connectors are that big of a deal?
