[VHFcontesting] No Controversy for The ARRL 10 GHz and Above Contest?

[Radiosporting Fan]

I'm curious...
--------------------------------------------------
>From the recap of the 2004 ARRL 10-GHz and Above
contest (where summative DX-points are the norm and
grids count for nothing), the following was stated...

"Bruce, W9FZ, who claims to be “off the deep end with
VHF/UHF/SHF weak signal activity,” topped the QSO
count list for the contest with 292 contacts from 34
unique stations. Glen, KCØIYT, was third in QSO count
with 256 contacts from 25 unique stations. His “QSO
ratio” (total number of contacts divided by unique
calls worked) was 10.2, the mark of a well- organized
group effort. Two other stations also showed great
team activity: Jim, N1SZ, with a QSO ratio of 12.2 and
Geary, NØGY, with a ratio of 10.8. Of all the
en-tries, the average QSO ratio was 3.2."

>From the 2005 rules: 1. Object: North American
amateurs work as many amateur stations in as many
different locations as possible in North America on
bands from 10-GHz through Light.
---------------------------------------------------
... why is there no controversy for this well
documented strategy?  Isn't it "genomically related"
to Grid Circling, Pack Roving in VHF contests?

Ev, W2EV

PS...I applaud these stations for maximizing their
score within the stated rules of the event.  This
inquiry goes to those who claim such strategies are
unsportsmanlike in some way.
