I would guess that any Brit who sent zone 27 in CQWW is unlikely to send in a
log. And if he did, the log checking should figure out that he really wasn't in
Guam, and disregard what it was that he sent.
Otherwise it would take extra effort do disregard and correct for all those
zone 27 multipliers that the copy what you heard crowd would be claiming.

I'm firmly in the log what you heard camp, following K3ZO's wisdom: "As my
dear departed and deeply missed mentor W3GRF always said: "It's a listening
contest as well as a sending contest.""But whether that optimizes points
depends on how the log checking software and process works.
If the offending station sent Zone 27 and put that in his Cabrillo file, log
checking software should not bust anyone entering 27. Anyone who corrected to
14 should get a busted exchange flagged.
If offending station sent 27 but his Cabrillo file showed 14, everyone who
logged what they copied would be flagged for a busted exchange, but it would be
obvious what had happened. In this scenarios, would the log checking software
or any human review see that pattern, and not enforce the penalty?
Maybe someone like Tree N6TR or Randy K5ZD would know but I'll still log what I
copy, even in prefill contests like the WWs.
