Hush your mouth, I say. I still love chipped beef on whatever starchy base I can find. SOS was a staple weekend breakfast - Navy family, natch - and it’s still my go-to morning-after-a-drunken-bender or general comfort breakfast at the local greasy spoon. Esskay even sells it in nice microwavable packages.
I used to make the alternate version with deli-sliced ham from scratch. Over biscuits. Divine.
