 Indeed, I HAVE offered solutions, which have been rejected as changing 
the nature of the contest (so that the advantages of those favored by 
the simplistic scoring rules for the pencil and paper computing 
capabilities of the '50s would be preserved). That simplicity was needed 
then, but 80 years later, it's a deterrent to interest in participation 
by those around the world not so favored. And since those advantaged by 
the scoring rules are those administering the major DX contests, nothing 
changes.
