IOW, a 5 wpm code test is an unreasonable burden, but having to
pass the Extra written within isn't.

You finally got it! Congratulations, Jim. That's almost absolutely
correct, and would be spot-on accurate if you change the word

Having to pass the Extra is both unreasonable and unnecessary to be a ham or
remain a ham.
