So does this bill also allow them to stop breaking down these prices so comprehensively?

e.g. All the various airport taxes will be listed as one price, all the government (DHS/etc) taxes as one price, etc.

I ask that, because before they did break down these prices in an easy to read way, it was "obvious" that airport charges were different when (at one time) you could fly from DTW->YYZ->LHR cheaper than from YYZ->LHR on AC, catching the same flight YYZ-LHR.
YYZ's O/D passenger charges were so high, versus transit charges, it just didn't make sense.
