Narrative:
This is a safety of flight issue that mia ATC is very nonchalant about. As you can see on the attachment [not provided] two different departures are assigned on the pre departure clearance. Unless things have changed I thought a pre departure clearance change would be highlighted with asterisk on each side of a new assigned routing. This procedure mia uses is a violation waiting to happen. Very dangerous procedure. In case the attachment is unreadable; hitag and winco were the two assigned departures.mia [must be made to] comply with standard pre departure clearance procedures like the rest of the country.
