Wayne is right, it's the right thing to do. And we amateurs try to produce the best signals we can. (Ignore the wide CW signals during contests. :-) )

But the value will also show up during multi-op situations like running 14A during field day. Field day is much more fun if everyone gets a chance to operate.

Predistortion, correctly applied, can reduce interference between adjacent stations on a crowded band. This is a factor at least some fraction of the time during typical amateur radio use. Beyond that, the motivation for a “pure“ signal exemplifies the amateur spirit of cooperation, and is an example of keeping the hobby on the forefront of electrical design.
