I'd be happy with a more thorough technical test to separate those who
REALLY know radio & electronics theory from those who Bash their way into
ham radio.

The basic idea of the code is to keep the hobby clean-- unlike CB.  While
the code test has served that purpose in the past, a comprehensive technical
test could be used today, when knowing ASCII is more useful than morse code.
