I think that NCVEC and ARRL and others are missing the boat here. With
the likely disappearance of Morse as a requirement, they are simply
proposing *another* caste system, in which there is an elite, and an
underclass ghetto of people with what to me seem to be radically reduced
privileges. I don't have anything against different levels, but this
seems like too much discrimination.
It doesn't sit well with you that you are cast with the pro-code caste?
Some hams NEED a caste system just to prove they are "better"
than others, thus fulfilling a self-deficiency.
For a very long time morse code ability was the caste marker,
having no reasonable value except for some to brag that they
were "better" than no-coders.
Tsk, tsk, tsk...all the pro-coders beginning to cry and whine...?
