Good try, Sir, but no cigar. It's not only about CW.

On 40 (including the latest change) CW/rtty/data get 125kHz (42% of the band)
On 20 CW/rtty/data get 150kHz (43% of the band)
On 75/80 (the widest of the three bands in your "alignment" comparison) CW/rtty/data get a mere 100kHz (20%) of the band.

If you consider the ~42% on 40/20 as a "fair share" for CW/rtty/data, then 42% on 80m would put the CW/rtty/data "band edge" just above 3700, fully twice as much space as this partially-baked R&O gives them.

Even K1ZZ could have put a better spin on this than you and the lady from Michigan are doing!
