On the contrary I have had both young officials and not so young officials ask why? And I tell them I have posted because that is the reason that the NCAA gave when it adopted the Rule.
Knowledge of the reason(s) for why a Rule was written is a good thing. Lack of knowledge of why a Rule was written in a certain way is not a good thing and gives us such nonsense as the Restricted Area (NCAA Men's and Women's), Lower Defensive Block (NCAA Women's) and Secondary Defender (NFHS, and NCAA Men's and Women's). I am done with my bald old geezer rant.
Have a great weekend.
