I agree that judicious use of not IDing is good technique.

To me  judicious means:

1.  Only after a quick, in tempo exchange. Not  after the other guy has 
sent his exchange with his J-38. You need to let the  pileup that you want 
things at your speed, not his.

2.  Not  after an exchange involving fills, corrections, etc.

3.  Never more  than 3 qsos without your call.

The stations at the top of the listing do not always  sign their call
after every contact.  N5TJ does not always say his call  after every 
contact.

I do not agree.
