I am a firm believer that the instrument rating by nature is not complete enough. There needs to be more XC training and more training on not just how to fly on instruments, but how to use the system. I know way too many IR pilots who can fly approaches all day, but they do not know how to use the system well enough. I think that there is no problem with doing an instrument XC early on, and I believe that people should do more of them, not just the one required one.
