Happily players still do not know about this rule.
See, for example, the old rules about the shot clock. Happily they've changed them now. Or alternating possession: they could have copied NF or NCAA, no. They want their own concoction.

Happily, we don't use FIBA.

The main problem is that the gurus (?) at Munich have some strange ideas. Do you want to know something else?
Well, referees are not allowed to use the "blocking foul" signal when, in a block-charge situation, the foul is committed by the defender. Instead they have to use the "pushing foul" signal. At least that's what our chiefs in Italy said. I would like to know if it is the same in other countries.
That interpretation about breaking the wall is complete foolishness (use some other word, if you prefer).
