I suspect in time one of two things will happen - either COTA will adjust their standards a bit and open to more DE's or will be even more limited than it is right now. Dumping fluids and off track excursions are inevitable. I can't think of too many DE's that I've been to where one or the other hasn't occurred. I don't see COTA having much tolerance in the first few years. Eventually, they'll either be able to handle or will have established enough alternatives to avoid DEs altogether.
