Are the writings on a football a game tool either? They have no effect on how the ball bounces. But the music is going to be more noticed by everyone in the vicinity who isn't deaf.

They were already getting ridiculous with things like this that have no effect on the game when they started meddling with face painting.

And I've noticed the same when it comes to governing bodies of all sorts of games. The rule books keep growing as they keep specifying more details, which is OK when necessary but silly when it gets into matters extraneous to the play of the games themselves, which unfortunately it often does.
