I know people that would gladly use ham bands for business uses, and with encryption allowed it would be "just another encrypted QSO". And the ham bands would slowly fill up with non-ham use.

I know these people too, and its a little odd since commercial/business licenses in the VHF/UHF part 90 bands are dirt cheap - a few hundred dollars for a ten year license, and no need to pass a test.
