I disagree.  The DX window (50100-50125) is a terrific idea and everyone
should respect that window.  Same thing with the US national calling
frequency 50125.  You may not hear DX in the DX window and may very well be
interfering with those who do or could.  Just because you can't hear it
doesn't mean it isn't there.  Since we are on the subject 50125 is the
calling frequency.  Whether the band is open or not people should not be rag
chewing on 50125.  It's a calling frequency.  Once you make that initial
contact move up the band so someone else can make a call.

Just my thoughts
