I'm not sure how providing breakdowns changes the outcome.  CW is quickly going to die in VHF contests since its either high rate SSB or not.  And if not, FT4/8 wins the day.

The same thing is happening to many DX pursuits.  6M and 160M are becoming dominated by FT8.

Thankfully, I enjoy CW and SSB HF contests where that problem manages itself.  And the new HF Digi contest provides a nice competitive outlet for those inclined.
