I can already tell we're never going to agree on this part of the issue. In a transition situation, I think it's just a horrible idea to prescribe that the slot official check up and trail a dribbler racing up his sideline when a trap may materialize. What about the potential block-charge developing? Your mechanic sends the slot directly into a stack, you've given the trail even less opportunity to be useful than he already had, and now you can rely only on the lead, fifty feet away, for help on this play. Disastrous, disastrous mechanic recommendation. The present system accounts for this situation as well as possible.
