You'd be absolutely right, except that what both the rule and I "say" is
affecting administration of the rules.
Imposing bench arrest for an o/w ejectable offense certainly fits the description of ordering someone [ORB includes "club officers and employees" along with game participants like players and coaches] to
do or refrain from doing something/ anything [confine your obnoxious self to the dugout & behave] which affects administration of the rules.
Not saying you have to do this; not even saying you SHOULD do this. I was just disagreeing with your statement that one CAN'T do this in an ORB game: if you feel it is necessary/ appropriate, 9.01b allows you to apply bench arrest to an ORB game. And pointing out that in little-kid ball EVERYONE will probably be grateful if you choose to do so in certain circumstances.
