Deciding that the power level of 50 W is acceptable for Class B, but
100 W is not, is just a matter of judgement. It's the same kind of
judgement as saying that 3500-3525 kHz is not allowed for all
license classes.


Not the same at all, Jim.

There is a clear safety advantage to lower power for less experienced users,
especially if you don't have a strenuous examination of safety issues.

As you have stated yourself, there is absolutely no fundamental difference
between operating at 3524 vs 3526, obviating any rational regulatory reason for
carving up the bands to provide private reservations for higher class licensees.
