Back just before 5 wpm code went into effect, a bunch of hams upgraded
just so they could say their license wasn't a welfare license. Heee
Heee.

I wonder if no-codes will make a mad rush to pass the code element this
time just so they can say they're a Code tested ham, or are welfare
license more acceptable these days?

There are people who are pushing ahead on their code for that reason.
I've seen several postings to that effect on various ham sites. Others
are pushing ahead simply because they don't want to wait.

And there are also a lot of them drooling like Pavlovs dog waiting for it
to disappear.

CW is alway the focal point.

I've never heard: "get a license, there are fewer questions. I have heard
"Get a license, no CW required, or code speed is reduced, upgrade.

If the CW requirement were raised to 13, I doubt we'd hear: "Get a
license, code speed requirement has been increased.

Oh well.
