I used the term "non-political" within the context
used by map makers. A political map changes over
time, whim and military action. Grids and Fields
don't, of course. :)

You may have misunderstood the intent of my inquiry,
Lee. I am simply asking why grid/field based scoring
hasn't "taste tested" (using your analogy) well for
more HF events. That's all.
It seems that tradition and history has a lot to do
with it. Thanks to everyone for the info. I truly
appreciate it.
