Let's face facts Carl- You can'nt function as a proficient CW communicator. I can.

simply makes me better qualified as a ham radio operator than you, test or no test.

It makes you better qualified to operate CW, period. Now, if the
activity at hand is operating in the SSB portion of November
Sweepstakes (or any other phone contest), or in the RTTY roundup, or
on an SSTV net, then your CW proficiency, taken by itself, makes you
no better qualified than my 10-year old daughter.
