I am aware of this situation... any others you want me to be aware of?

See GENERAL INFORMATION in the FOREWARD of the case book. That says "the interpretations and rulings for all play situations have been approved by the rules committee and are official". If it's clearly stated in the case book, then it's an approved and official NFHS ruling. Are you trying to say that isn't true?

Never wrote that it wasn’t true. The Rule Book should have a more clear definition when an intentional foul occurs. If you’re satisfied, good for you but for newbie’s and some vets, every bit of information surely would be beneficial.

It doesn't matter if rule book language is a little fuzzy if there is a very explicit case book play giving a definitive ruling.

To me, the rule book isn’t fuzzy in regards to an intentional foul summary. It is well stated in generalization but could communicate more meanings for a successful or unsuccessful try, e.g. PENALTIES: #6 Multiple Foul.
By the way, youre never too old or young to dish out your thoughts and replies. Now try this for your years behind your ears...

An old man announces his intention to marry a beautiful young woman but he is persuaded to have a medical exam first.

"Doc, everyone tells me I need a checkup to see if I'm sexually fit,"

"O.K," says the doctor, "Let me see your sex organs."

So the old guy sticks out his tongue and his middle finger.
