I also have mastered CW very well and have used it many times in weak
signal work on 2 meters. I have an Advanced license and never felt the
need yo go beyond if for my purposes.
As to whether I still feel it's a hugh priority, no I don't.
With today's modes of communication it does seem out-moded.
My typing is better than ever and many new modes use a keyboard. :-)

Slow Code is not a true Ham. From the time the first Ham was born
true Hams have always used the latest and newest technology. Slow
seems to be stuck back in the stone age , still using 4 pins vacuum tubes.
Some of us move on to the latest technologies, but also have a feel for our
roots.
It never needs to be one or the other.
