[RTTY] Why ARRL Messed with RTTY Awards

Anyone understand the logic or reason behind the ARRL decision to include
PSK31 and other digital mode QSOs for the RTTY WAS and DXCC awards?

I can see the need or justification for the creation of a Digital award
category but never understood why it was combined with RTTY.

My RTTY WAS #054 and DXCC awards were all RTTY QSO's. I must be in the
minority on this topic but RTTY is RTTY, not PSK31 or other digital modes.

Hope to work a few in the 2008 RTTY Round UP

Happy New Year
