The old FT-1000D is notorious. (I have one.) I'm not sure about the MP. There's a mod, which helps, but it's still wide. It's a big reason I bought a K3.

I've noticed that it is directly proportional to the signal strength, but some ARE that wide (one brand in particular is more offensive).

My guess is that they are that bad.
Luckily, the ones that are hot-switching their relays won't be on the air for too long. At least, not with high power.

Depending on the radio they are using, some are really nasty!

And with some that seem to run their radio in QSK mode, but without a
QSK qualified amp, that makes things worse as they are likely arcing and
sparking the relays.  Nothing like a good old spark gap transmitter to
eat up lots of bandwidth.

Is there something wrong with my P3, or are all of those extremely
wide raged CW signals I see in the DX pile-ups really that bad?
