I just tested this and Fox tried 3 times to respond to a blind call.
Define a "blind call." I would define it as calling someone you can't copy.
As others have observed, an expedition op with a screenful of callers is unlikely to call CQ.
DXpedition mode is ingeniously designed so that additional callers DON'T interfere with a QSO in progress unless they call in the controlled region below 1 kHz. As such, it is FAR superior to the usual pileups.
I have made many 6M QSOs with stations in grids I needed by calling them either after they sent RRR or RR73, or after decoding 3-4 of their transmissions trying to work a caller for whom propagation no longer exists. And I never respond on the frequency of the station I'm calling, so I'm unlikely to QRM the station he's trying to work.
