I weighed the benefit of HF against conforming

How is participating in the test helping the requirement to continue?

Just my personal preference. As I said in another place, I spent too
much time doing useless stuff for a regulatory agency while getting
paid for it. I don't want to do it for free. My life...my choice.

There are a lot of hoops
that I would be willing to jump through to get HF privileges. Code
isn't one of them.

To each his own.

Call it a matter of personal ethics. Upgrading would have been the
easy way out.

Or consider this:

Which do you think is more convincing to FCC as a reason to remove Element 1:

- The person who says "I won't upgrade until that test is removed"

or

- The person who says "I took the test, passed it, yet I think there is no
reason for that test to exist any more."

No that I think that either one will have an impact on the final
decision, but I'd have to say a combination of both would be most
effective.
