The low end of 6 meters is used EXTENSIVELY on CW for weak signal
intercontinental DX.

I don't find this so much a problem. I believe there is a similar CW subband on 2 m. as well. That represents only 1/40 of the 6m band. It would be the equivalent of a 12.5 kHz kHz CW band on 80m.

The real problem is with the outdated subband restrictions we have on HF. For example, 50% of the 3.5-4.0 mHz band is restricted to accomodate communications that could easily fit into less than 20% of the band, even during CW contests.
