I can still remember having guests in the shack that could not decipher the monkey chatter OT the code. ;-) K3 guys pick up a wider than 2.7 khz roofing filter to take best advantage of this.

There ain't no monkey chatter on CW, and you can let shack visitors
read the CW from the K3 front panel, unless the operator on the other
end is QLF.

There also ain't no monkey chatter on SSB if the rig RX is on the
correct frequency; even with a 2.1 KHz filter.
