It's a question of pragmatism.  That is, when the operations are sight 
unseen (unlike WRTC and HST), there's a limit to what can be enforced 
and what can't.

On a side note, there was a DQ from HST a number of years ago when I 
competitor from Belarus was found to have a CW "slower downer" built 
into his headphones.  After that, the rules were changed - headphones 
supplied by the organizers.
