It's all a matter of where you draw the line. This is just more
technology, and technology is **supposed** to make things easier.
Following your line of reasoning, we'd have to disqualify those using
DSP or beam antennas because it makes DXing harder for those that
don't have them.

I think this is exactly the kind of thing that people are objecting
to.
Taking away the work and the element of chance involved in hunting
for the
DX removes a lot of the challenge, even if you do still have to
work it. And
if the big guns are instantly alerted to the presence of any DX on
the band,
it reduces the window of opportunity for the alert, but un-equipped
with
this program, little pistols.
