The sprint rules with the QSY rule were from the beginning.   Many contest 
change the rules over the years, inlcuding.
 
The exchange for SS once included the time of the QSO...lots of  others for 
this popular one.  (http://www.qsl.net/nu0q/sshist.htm) 
The assisted was separate from the non-assisted class in  WAE.
There were limits as to how many DL, G station you could work in  ARRLDX.
Multi single rules have been changed over the years for the CQ  sponsored 
contests.
10-10 contests do not allow for the plaque winner to be a  non-member
 
Bottom line:  Rules change in contests over the years, like  them or not.  
We have the option of petition, operating with the new rules  or not 
participating. 
 
Although not perfect, the rule change is a step in the right  direction.

Sprint  was designed around the QSY rule.  WPX was not. This is a poor  
comparison.
