From the regulations:
Sec. 97.101 General standards. (a) In all respects not specifically
covered by FCC Rules each amateur station must be operated in accordance
with good engineering and good amateur practice. (b) Each station
licensee and each control operator must cooperate in selecting
transmitting channels and in making the most effective use of the
amateur service frequencies. _No frequency will be assigned for the
exclusive use of any station._

I have not heard about any proposal on the table about a proposal to
exclude non-ALE station from certain frequencies. I am sure that if
this was a fact, the flames wars would already be in progress.
This seems to be a festering wound in need of a doctor.
