I'm afraid you hit the nail right on the head.

So now, having said this so eloquently, let's again try to twist logic
to explain how a different modulation would change the picture.

And I'm *not* talking about introducing other new services that have not
proved to survive anywhere else in the world. That's a different
discussion. Let's see why broadcasters would behave any differently in
terms of promoting a Euro-style Freeview service here, if only for a
different modulation scheme.
