That was not the problem with HATS which, like similar "audio rate control" schemes, worked well. The problem is/was that each of them was proprietary so that a Sony player would not work with a Pioneer AVR and vice versa . The corollary, of course, is that still other manufacturers would not include any ARC scheme because they had to choose their compatibility.
A great example of how the lack of an industry standard cost us a useful feature.
