Thing is, the means by which a given end result may be accomplished are many.
Radio amateurs are an inventive bunch. If one means is (are?) outlawed, we will find another means. You'll end up playing "whack-a-mole" -- and

Personally, I thought the principles Dick posted made an enormous amount of sense.
