In my mind, the real question is why a 'bounce and go' is allowed for
daytime currency in a nosedragger...

When immigration is outlawed, only outlaws will immigrate.

I may be wrong about this, but I think daytime recent experience
requires full stop landings too.

Only in an tail-wheel aircraft, not one with tricycle gear.

Yeah, I see that you're right. I stand (will, sit) corrected. It's
been a long time since I've not flown enough in 90 days to make 3
landings. My usual concern is staying current for IFR without
scheduling flights just for that purpose. Too often the 'real' flights
are not in IMC, and it's been some time since I was anywhere near
minimums without having the field in sight. Takes all of the fun out
of "Cleared ILS to RR whatever, report outer marker inbound".
