Let's ban all manual spots in contests! Screw the phone guys, they should
all do without the cluster or just learn code!

I'm sure this is not what you meant. You probably meant let's ban all
manual spots in CW contests.

Their is also the option of not working the guy who spotted you before the
QSO was correctly in the log. One of the advantages of phone is that you
can tell the guy why he's not in your log in a couple of seconds and move
on to the next caller without loosing momentum. In CW that's a different
story.
