LOL your absolutely right.
I just wanted to comment that on occasion, there can be situations that 
result in people being accused wrongly.

The 'UP' scenario is another example.
And it's happened to me also.
DX stations works a number of callsigns ending with qrz or tu.
and never a single 'UP'.
I Make one call simplex and I get a half dozen people yelling at me.
