I am fully aware that slow AGC has its limitations in the presence of

signal strength prior to transmitting, but rather reset it to a no-signal
condition when resuming receive.


But if there's a strong signal on frequency, don't you risk blasting your
eardrums?

(not sure there's a problem with the way it is . . .)

True, but one method to help protect your eardrums if there is a strong signal on frequency, and while the AGC is catching up after being reset, is to slice / clip the audio at a level above the normal listening level peaks but safely below the "blast threshold". Not a pretty solution but at least it is not too complicated.
