This is why I do not care for the train of thought that you need to penalize the defense.
That's not your concern. You are getting paid to work a game under a particular set of rule. If you are working under a set of punitive rules, you apply the rule as directed.
If you have a problem with the rule, then you probably shouldn't work u-trip.
