So I am not convinced they got this wrong in practice. And even this Hyland example caused some confusion and was talked about in pre-games.

LOL...see the Art Hyland play quoted above. Apparently, you're misunderstanding the rulings or the reason for the rulings.

And you have it backwards....the "gotcha" is calling such a player with a block when they deserved a charge just because he ended up with a heel on the line.
