The difference is that users were locked in to sending 599
in every QSO.  Even if they wanted to send something else,
it wouldn't let them.

What's not clear is whether you are defending the exchange
of 599 in every contest QSO. 

I have suggested replacing RST with Serials.  Do you agree?
If not, what would you suggest?
