What it shows me is that no one has paid much attention to the rules until
the current proposed re-write has been made public.

Exactly as I expected.

Time-and-time again changes are made to contest rules. Not just CQWW, but almost every contest. Years go by without a comment on this reflector until, suddenly, the usual malcontent's rise from their Rip Van Winkle-like slumber.

Maybe this is actually a good thing, since the effect of most rule changes on 99.9% of the participants is zero. Having a rule change in effect for years without anyone noticing proves it.
