The second is easier to answer, a "dit dit" is a lot shorter than sending a "TU".....

Speaking of things that drive me nuts: 

Sending an additional "TEST" at the end of a CQ. IE "CQ TEST N1IX N1IX 
TEST" 

This seems to be a rather recent phenomenon. I do mostly S&P and invariably 
I send my call on top of the last "TEST". 

It would be a lot easier if everyone sent a standard "CQ" string. 



Also, what's with the "dit dit" in response to a successful QSO.
