The present rules, or rules with a no return to a previous callsign,
affect only those who wish to submit a log. It does not affect a person whose
only interest is inflating the numbers of a friend. It does not affect the
person with whom those 100 unique are made. (Although such a high unique
number would likely catch the notice of log checkers, who might find other
ways
to handle the entry of the beneficiary.)
The rules as presently written do affect somebody who would like to get on
and spend a couple of hours as a new guy working lots of different people
in the late hours.
The CQ contests do not have such a prohibition. Have you noticed a problem
in them?

Jim,
I fail to see where forbidding the use of a previous call after the use of
a new one does anything to prevent any abuse. Drop 3.3 and 3.5 and allow
someone to use as many calls as they want as long as they don't go back to
one already used? So with permission from every ham in your home town you
could make however many contacts you wanted with 25, 50 or 100 different
callsigns as long as you didn't go back to one already used?
