[CQ-Contest] Two points for intra-NA QSOs in CQWW?

[Cqtestk4xs at aol.com]

I completed the survey and was surprised to see this proposed change in the 
 rules.  The rules change proposed sounds like some of the guys who go to  
the Carib are unhappy with a bottomless pit of 2 pointers.
 
Interesting it is only zones 6,7,8.  What about the guys in KL7 who  are 
further away from the action than a guy in C6 or CO.  Sound fair?
 
I suggest they check out some three point locations instead of looking for  
a rules change.

Hi,

I just took the CQWW survey, and one question  in particular sparked a
further question:

What is the origin and  rationale for the CQWW rule where North American
stations get 2 points for  intra-continent QSOs instead of just 1 point,
which is the case for all  other continents? 

I honestly don't know the answer, and find this  exception to be very
strange. To see the idea about raising it to 3 points  I find even stranger.
