And the K1 is all the better for it too with the silkiest tuning of the
bunch.
I'm also mystified by the compulsion to measure operating frequency on a ham
BAND to a few Hz. Assuming I'm inside the band, the only frequency of
interest to me is the person I'm in QSO with. I want to be close to that
frequency, but I really don't care what that frequency actually is. A super
accurate display doesn't tell me if I am on the other guys frequency...there
easier ways to determine that.
Maybe operating for a day with something like my Drake 2-B/2-NT would be a
good replacement for the code requirement.

btw, although the K1 has a processor, it's closer to the SX-28 in basic
design (!).

One thing that I find somewhat amusing is the enoromous attention given to
getting exact QRG down to a few Hz. For specialized uses, that sort of
accuracy
might be needed, but I'm much more interested in things like dynamic range,
selectivity quality, etc. - differences you can hear!
