Following that line of thinking, when someone who has a ratty fist sends
his call incorrectly during my QSO I should log that call, and not the one I
think it is? Gonna cost you points. I've worked quite a few guys in CW
contests whose fists are not FOC quality

When a "Sunday driver" guy calls me in the contest from DJ and sends me
5901 instead of 5914, that clearly is wrong. You're saying that I should
log
it as 5901 and not make the correction?

We had a very good example of this in CQWW SSB. 7O2A was on the air from
Socotra Island in Yemen. He clearly sent zone 37 for every QSO, but many
operators went with the default zone filled in by their logging software
(21)... and lost the multiplier.
