It's like riding a bicycle when you could be driving an SUV.
If you like to do it, then do it, but don't force others to
adopt your particular favorite aspect of our hobby. There's
room for many favorite aspects.

For communications capability under difficult conditions, CW
cannot hold a candle to PACTOR II. For fun, PACTOR II cannot
hold a candle to CW. That's my personal experience and opinion.
