Another sign that cluster clickers are calling is
when the station who initially spot is somewhat
off frequency. Then you get 10 callers in a row
who are also off frequency by the same amount.
I've encountered that many times.
If you get 10 callers that are zero beat with the
running station, that may or may not have to do
with spots.

Yes, that is right. I remember once at P49Y, I had just come on a band
and was called by several stations including a 30 over 9 East Coast
Multi. I was about to come back to the loud multi when a bit off
frequency I could barely copy "JTI". So I came back first to W6JTI,
just so I could tell him after the contest that his QRP signal from CA
had beaten out a big East Coast Multi in a pile-up.!

Interesting analysis, but I would add another factor to the
operator-dependent factors: CW pitch. These days, most of the signals
will be zero-beat with a packet-spot frequency. Going slightly off
frequency often nabs the QSO.
