Regarding keying to produce CW in SSB mode – I mean this as a question, not a
criticism – why would someone want to do it? If both ends of the QSO are using
SSB then, as I understand it, there is no relative frequency offset between
them. But there would be for any other station using CW mode for CW. Do I
have that right? If so, what’s the advantage of using SSB mode for CW
operations? Is it that using SSB allows programmed keying from a computer
generated audio tone? Wouldn’t something like a Winkeyer and N1MM allow the
same operation in CW mode itself?

The K3 CW in SSB mode is different because it is real keyed CW from the
paddles of keying input. Yes, the carrier is shifted by the sidetone
pitch so a station listening in SSB mode will hear the tone.
