This sounds like someone has too much time on their hands.  (But then  again, 
those of us responding here probably fit that description as well  :>)  )
 
Over the years the calling frequency question has been beaten to death,  with 
the situation basically being that different parts of the country have  
different issues.
 
The only people I can imagine that are having a problem are those who do  not 
use 144.200 as a *calling* frequency, but rather that a *full time rag chew  
frequency*. 
 
Is 144.202 considered a OK (non-calling) frequency if CW is used?  Two  KHz 
separation on CW is plenty for those signals that front end overload is  a not 
an issue.
 
Time for the VUAC to say "no problem, mon" and go back to sleep.
