I'm not splitting any hairs. You implied that because NICAM doesn't

because the other codecs don't have that either.

I was assuming he meant as-is. Ie same transmission system, albeit
different frequency, as well as same codec. In which case it would be
unsuitable.


You made absolutely no reference to NICAM being unsuitable due to the high
bit rate it uses, and you only mentioned its lack of error correction.
