Slow players can be identified, exhorted, monitored, clocked as a matter of discretion.

Not just 'can be' but 'has been' for as long as I've been playing the game -- 35 years and counting. Problem is that 35 years of data are conclusive that this method doesn't work in practice.

Since you seem to be open minded, always looking at both sides fairly, don't forget to include the players driven away by slow play while you're counting those who are driven away by clock usage.
