The frequencies I am referring to are operated by ATCs and are also used by ATC to CONTROL aircraft - that's why I call them ATC frequencies .

That is the conflict. NAS that was accepted as government policy did not require pilots to make announcements on ATC control frequencies.

If the 320 million population in the USA can get by with a disciplined system that does not allow (for safety reasons) VFR pilots to make announcements on frequencies that are utilized for separation - why can't we
