Comment on TCAS Avoided Collision with Army Helicopter over Potomac River [video]parent

Seems like a bit of an overcorrection. They might want to re-think their criteria for allowing visual separation inside of class B. ATC already has discretion over when visual separation is applicable, and they could raise the visibility threshold for when it's allowed.

Seems like a bit of an overcorrection.

Permanent suspension would likely be an overcorrection. Indefinite suspension while reviewing the routes and options seems reasonable.

Take a few days or weeks to figure out what the new rule should be, and then move to that.

Sounds like a political decision - closing the gate after the horse has bolted.
