There are all sorts of grievances that one can lodge on scoring. Let's 
see, station in W4 works station in W6 (2400 miles).  Points awarded - 0
Station in PA works station in DL (228 miles).  Points awarded - 1
Station in VE3 works station in W3 (347 miles).  Points awarded - 2
On and on and on.

Let's see some real data to back up these proposals.  CQWW logs are available.  
Crunch the numbers and publish the results.

I proposed a regional handicap system where each score is adjusted based on how well
