I don't think the miniscule speed decrease is a factor. In my mind, it just
looks silly to send 5NN on RTTY, because the CW technique of speedup is
actually a slowdown on RTTY. OTOH CW ops are so used to it that perhaps it
is a don't care.

Please don't send 5NN in place of 599. 5NN in RTTY requires an extra
LTRS shift that actually slows things down. It's not much, but over
hundreds or thousands of Qs it adds up. 5NN is fine for CW.
