Negative.  This changes nothing you were complaining about in your 
message.  Your suggestion actually makes what you are complaining about 
worse.

SOAB+ is a viable category.  It's just not attracting all of the best 
competitors.  The best thing SOAB+ affords is the casual DX contest ops 
the opportunity to get on the radio and contest without fear of missing 
the chance at a new one that might get spotted on packet.
