I don't see the point of this at all. What possible benefit is there for anyone ... even those who own 200 watt rigs ... to make this change??

From a competitive standpoint, those who own 100 watt rigs (a population much greater than those who own 200 watts rigs) would be at a significant disadvantage. 3db is a considerable difference in average signal strength.

It seems to me that this "modest" proposal would create all sorts of problems without solving any.

about aligning the category of medium power to 200watts??

Ok, I guess K3 owners will become upset, but some feel that radio is so
superior, shouldn't they have to take a little handicap?

I told you my proposal is modest, but then I read Jonathan Swift.  73,
