This is taking a while to sink in.

As some of us have been hammering on for a few days now, this is not true. If you don't have a medical newer than ten years, or have never had one, you get to go through the field of mousetraps and gotcha's that now passes for medical issuance. And go to the not-cheap expense and risk of special issuance, and never flying anything again if the AME flunks you for a condition that would not be evident if that applicant was flying light sport.
