There gives the D the ability to facemask, knowing that it's only going to be a 1.5 yard penalty, at most.
In Canada, you can go half the distance (from the 5), or the full 15 on the KO.

Lots of us working under the NF code have problems with it, too. It's certainly not the only problem, even. This one, I hope, will be corrected soon. I'm not sure it will be, though - NFHS doesn't seem eager to give options on penalty enforcements.
