But ignoring system operators who use the menus to control the system
unfairly biases the test.

If I remember the little I've read in the operator's manual, the menus are
one of the two 'official' ways to control the machine.  A top-notch
operator doesn't -need- to have memorized all of the commands on the system.

I suppose there's no chance of including a CRT and an AS/400 to administer
the test?
