Sterling mentioned one intriguing possibility, the use of delay.
Wouldn't a long-enough delay eliminate the complaint about soliciting
contacts by non-amateur means? I'm thinking in terms of an hour or two
(or 6) for HF contests.

This discourse is giving me a lot of insight as to the future of amateur
radio contesting.
I forgot to mention: gaming has a thing called stream sniping, where
opponents try to get an upper hand by watching the streams of a competitor.
It's just like peeking at player 2's screen on Nintendo64 007 Goldeneye
multiplayer. Streamers tend to put long delays or conceal revealing
information to combat this. At eSport tournaments, stream sniping
vehemently banned, and almost made impossible. Some teams have been caught
sneaking information about their opponents strategy or whereabouts to
competitors remotely, via earpieces, chat programs, etc. New rules and
monitoring were put into place.
