They only count for double points on CW.

Not that I can think of.

Since one can no longer earn a Novice or Tech+ license, I would expect that
within a very few years either every one of those stations still on the
air will have upgraded to a General class license, or will be inactive
or lapsed.
In the past three years of 10 Meter Contests, including dupes, I've made
almost 8,600 phone QSOs, and only once has a station I worked signed /T.
