The lanyard is exactly the same kind of situation. Pure style.

I did not say there was an abolishment of anything. Actually you can wear anything you like and technically fit the uniform. There are just things that are much more standard and if you wear those standards, hardly anyone will ever complain about that item. Belt less pants fit are an acceptable standard.

Once again, that depends on who you are. I have had a mustache my entire career and I have never had anyone say anything about it. It has never appeared to hurt me work anything. I will just reference Danny Crawford (NB), Donny Gray (D1 and sometimes cuts his off), Gerald Boudreaux (SEC Supervisor of Official and Final Four Official during his career). Most African-American D1 Officials seem to wear a mustache and this includes the ones that work the Final Four and other NCAA Tournament games. My point is this is not a deal breaker issue.
