flying: Discovery Flight

Anyone who ever learned to fly airplanes knows that the conventional first step is so-called "discovery flight". In fact, I found by experience that it's positively impossible to bypass it (e.g. try to schedule any appointments with an instructor without taking a discovery flight first). Why is that? Nobody ever explains! Heck, nobody in an FBO ever admits that it's impossible.

I came to think that the discovery flight is a structured way for the instructor to fail you right there without going through the rest of the dance.
