I propose the term S & P be updated to our modern world. It's time to call it C & P (click and pounce). Does anyone really Search any more?

The aim is gain two way contacts?    I thought it was to work as many
people as possible and as many mults.  Pileup control is done by giving
callsigns.  So in an effort to placate the I NEED IT NOW  society a
rules change has been made to remove a viable strategy from a run
station so that S&P stations can get a call or verify a call faster.

The next rule change we need is that everyone gets a shiny trophy and we
have no winners and losers..................

With the aim of the contest being to gain as much TWO-WAY-contacts, the other half of a qso seems to be such an essential part(ner) of the action that the decision does not seem to be unwise. Oh, and it is simply fair to take care of that point. But YMMV
