Both clubs had considered this back in the 1970's, and in the NRC, also
earlier. In both cases a smallish number of mainly international DX'ers
proposed it. 

Since active international DX'ers do not comprise a significant
proportion of the membership of either club, the majority would
understandably be resistant to it, whereas most of those who are either
mainly international DX'ers or who do both are already quite accustomed
to converting.
