On all of those I assume it's because their receiver isn't as good as my K2.
It's the Elecraft curse: You can often hear people who can't hear you.

In fact, bad receivers account for about half the things on the top-10 list.

Ditto - I heard 3 or 4 cases where the station (note I didn't say 
operator, 'cause I'm not sure there was one at the moment) was sending 
CQ SS in a loop, apparently never listening, because they didn't answer 
any of the callers.  No big deal - I  just kept moving up the band in 
S&P mode, but I saw this enough times that it got my attention.
