While some points make sense, which rules are the less than equal ones? Definition of the strike zone? Batter is out when...? 7-2-c-3?
While I am not one to pick nits or look for trouble...to say some rules are "less equal" than others is (insert your favorite word/phrase here).

John,
Think that greymule meant that it is the intent and interpretation of the
rule, rather than rules being "less equal".
In you reference 7-2-c-3, it does not say batter is out if count is less than
3 strikes and enters the dugout. It does say the umpire may warn the player and may
if repeated offense occurs, call a strike. This was not stated in the originial
post. However, if in your game you wish to call someone out on two strikes, then
do so. Personally, I am bringing the batter back to complete his/her turn at
the plate.
