Why not?
Because since the removal of the change of status rule forty years ago tens of thousands of officials have continued to call it as if we still had the change of status rule, despite the fact that imperfect rule language says otherwise.
Purpose and intent, even forty year old purpose and intent, and possibly "tradition", trumps imperfect rule language.
