I guess the easy way to send “cw perfection” is a keyboard.  Or an AccuKeyer 
(but that’s not the issue)

If you use a key of any kind, it’s virtually impossible not to make a mistake 
from time to time. Telling someone not to get on the air until their CW is 
“perfect” just keeps folks off the air. 

Now I’ll admit that there is a difference between slop and the ersatz mistake 
all of us make. But ... if I had been held to the “perfection” standard in 
1958, I’d have never gotten on the air and tried to make a contact ... and 
still wouldn’t have.
