Let's get down to what this proposal is really all about:


1) More room for the 'phone folks/less for the CW & data folks


Unless I've missed something, that statement does not accurately reflect the
thrust of the proposal.

Yes, it would grant more spectrum to phone, equal to that now enjoyed by CW.
No, it does not diminish the spectrum available to CW.
No, it does not diminish the spectrum available to data -- in fact, it increases
it to equal that now enjoyed by CW.


2) Less constraint on the robot-data-mode folks


Yes, and less constraint to all other modes also.

Sort of in the spirit of the upcoming holiday, it has a ring of freedom about
it.

So does freebanding and pirate stations.. ;^)
