It would seem to me that if the FEDeralies want to pursue the safety issue with this interpretation then they ALSO need to revisit the wearing of casts (covered with foam, etc.) by players. Seems to me that a ball lodged in a glove would have sufficient padding to at least reduce the safety factor to that of a covered cast.
