Conventional wisdom that 80 and 40 are LSB bands might account for it.  After 
all, if there is "no USB" when you are using LSB, you should be able to run rght 
up to the edge.

I suppose the real nitpick is if the unwanted sideband and IMD products outside 
of the band are within allowable limits?

Of course if folks were extra cautious, then there might be room for a cw qso up 
there (g).
