A major  scandal like this happened one with a CQ HF contest where someone 
documented  unassisted people were being spotted and the QSO times matched 
the spots. Why  expose an ARRL contest to that?
 
What are you talking about?  When was this ever a  scandal?
 
This happens all the time in HF contests, and nobody cares about it in  
regard to rules violations. It may be annoying that people like me in Ohio  get 
spotted less than someone in Vermont or Puerto Rico, but it has never been  
an  adjudication issue.
 
There have been issues with people who claimed to be unassisted who made  
qsos that lined up with posted packet spots, and who were disqualified or  
reclassified. But this is in no way what you are talking about.
