You're making fun of care and caution?
Mistakes will happen (forgetting to turn VOX off when done with the QSO;
bumping the key, the snoring cat laying on the microphone switch) but
that is not the same level of mistake as transmitting ambient noise,
operating system sounds (of any type) or similar.
We are all liable for what is produced by our stations; we should take
that seriously and do our best to manage them. It's been clear that
there are many that don't as often found on the bands.

We should go back to a toggle switch on the front panel for
transmit/receive because having VOX turned on might allow an
inadvertent transmission of shack noise. Likewise, with QSK on CW
accidentally bumping the key will send unwanted garbage. We should be
protected from ourselves making mistakes.
