The NFHS will back you up if you say, "This vanished interpretation is no longer correct because rule XXX changed", or "because X.X.X changed the vanished interpretation".

But "It's not in the book" alone will no longer cut the mustard.

Not sure how you can speak for others and their situations.

I'm trying to figure out whom exactly I would be having a conversation with in which the phrase "the vanished interpretation says...." is made.

I've never had the NFHS come in and "back me up" before. What does that look like?
