It would take a lot to change an established tradition. If I am 
tuning across you in a conventional contest and can't copy your CQ 
after a couple of tries, I would normally just move on without 
another thought, assuming you had something momentarily screwed up, 
and that I would probably catch you later.

But if we announced a 75-baud only contest, everyone would know what to expect.
