Why let an organization that has been a ball and chain, with only 20% of
the USA ham population as members, be the controller of all things ham?
In this day and age of the internet and direct communications to the
FCC, why can't we just let them set the overall rules and then just
let it continue? Aren't we supposed to be "self policing"?

The only band plan rule enforced by the FCC ought to be against
deliberate interference to other hams. Otherwise, you could have a
voluntary plan, perhaps administered by the ARRL. That way you could
foster experimentation and research (such as the one that started this
thread).
