The contest-free zone idea was ill-conceived from the outset.
Here is one example of how it is broken:

The "contest-free zone" is 28300-28350.  The novice band in Argentina
is 28300-28350.  So what about LU novices that want to operate the
contest?  Are they going to be disqualified for operating at
28300-28350?  How about W stations who answer "CQ contest" calls made
by LU novices between 28300 and 28350?  This is broken.
