[RTTY] PSK31 is faster (Was FD RTTY Question)

I didn't do a contest in PSK from XV but in just DX with a "call 599 call" 
kind of QSO what I usually got back in PSK was "Thanks for calling. Report: 
599........". RTTY folks understand that short format QSO. PSK folks either 
do not understand the short format or perhaps are just not setup for the 
short format.

Isn't the "real" objection to PSK that is prone to garbling due to
multipath? It might be ok for a domestic contest like Field Day, but how
about a DX contest?

I don't use PSK all that much, but that is what I hear. True or not?
