Out of context quotation! You could be a politician. :) I said "either pretty inconsiderate or pretty ignorant of long established practice on the band."
Ignorant of long established practice on the band" is quite different from "ignorant."
And I stand by my comments. General practice on 40M has long been for digital operation above 7070 kHz. Yes, FT4 is INTENDED for contesting, but many hams will use it simply because it'd the latest and greatest, or because it gets the buzz. N4TM noted that 7072 was proposed earlier, but seems to have been rejected.
As to my failing to make suggestions -- I spend a LOT of time making my own contributions to ham radio.
