My opinion is that we should have the flexibility to do whatever we can do within a 2.8 kHz bandwidth (including multiple carrier modes, spread spectrum, etc.). I think voluntary band plans is good enough. Nobody is going to transmit a 2.8 kHz wide digital signal at 14.025 MHz.

There are many other countries that regulate on bandwidth and generally let hams do whatever they want in a normal SSB channel width. We don't see chaos from that!

Does this comfort you?
As comforting to a CW op feels when I unleash 2.8 kHz wide digital signals down 
at 14.025 MHz, where I am authorized by the FCC to do.

I am not exactly impressed by this latest "in your best interest" from
the ARRL, but for CW (that I am slowly learning) at least we
technically have the entire band to use.  At this point the ARRL
should probably just take the position that there be no sub-bands for
specific emotions.  If they feel 2.8KHz is OK everywhere why not?

All I can say is if the FCC does open it up for comments those
concerned better be ready to fire off some detailed arguments against
it or this will happen.
