cueing calls up in a stack on the window count for the language of the DXCC and Contesting rule?  
And how about however long it takes to actually "work the station" that you have entered 
while you are out mowing the lawn.

That has ZERO automation with respect to the station trying to work DX. It simply allows more QSOs to happen faster. The "Hound" must initiate the QSO by calling, AND he has to build a station. Why is station-building so often ignored in this conversation?
