You underestimate the skills of casual contesters.
The only breathing space they need is to hear their
own call - that tells them they're supposed to
copy whatever is next.
How do casual contesters manage in contests with
no RST - like Field Day or SS?

The bad examples are the mindless repetition of
59(9), and the requirement for it to be exchanged
in the first place. If CBers did this, you would
laugh at them.
