Agree. If it's not obvious and you weren't aware of it, it would certainly be hard for anyone to claim gross negligence on the official's part imo. Not that they wouldn't try though...they name everybody including the janitors in these lawsuits. If you knowingly allow something unsafe to be worn though, and someone then gets hurt, methinks that there' s a good chance that your azz is gonna be in a hairband.
The good thing is that the rules allow the R to use his judgement as to whether something really is safe or not. If someone else disagrees, then let 'em go to the State governing body and get a definitive ruling....which they shoulda done in the first place anyway on anything iffy.
