You seem to be saying that, regardless of what zone a station
gives or what we hear, we should log the zone the software
indicates - assuming, of course, the software interprets
callsigns/zones the way CQ expects.

It follows then that there is absolutely no point in exchanging
zones on-air in CQWW - not to mention RST :-)
