This will give no-codes motivation to study more about radio if they
want to continue to be a radio amateur. This helps new no-codes
coming in because the old no-codes that are studying will know more and
be better elmers to the new ones.


Yeah, and waste call signs on people who most likely wont learn code.




No, The one year non-renewable no-code hams would be issued callsigns from
the old CB callsign blocks of the mid 1970's. After they pass the code test
they get a real ham call unless they prefer to keep using the CB one.
