In theory I agree with you Mike, however rules like this: To use a player, replaced player or substitute in a substitution or pretend substitution to deceive opponents at or immediately before the snap or free kick. are inherently ambiguous. Who determines whether the intent is to deceive the opponent and why is at or immediately before the snap or free kick. included in the rule unless there is a possibility of legally using deception as long as it is not at or immediately before the snap or free kick.
The NCAA rule is much less ambiguous and therefore easier to consistently apply.
And sometimes we do have chaos and I do like that aspect of football.
