Wasn't it just 2 or 3 years ago that the fed was complaining that 'strategic fouls' only served to make the game too long? And didn't they also tell us a coach yelling "FOUL 'EM!" is an automatic intentional?

The least the committee could have done was admit they completely reversed their stand on this.
Why should they start now. They completely changed the LGP rule by "interpretation" 2-3 years ago. They didn't even call it a rule change.
