It also makes it much easier to call and takes the guesswork and confusion out of it.

Why would they want to do that? The rule is fine the way it is. The problem is you have people that think everyone should call the game as closely as they would while watching TV. If they were as good as the official working the actual games, then they would be there. I have not seen this called at the HS level as closely as those claim they are doing. No one is complaining. The only people making an issue are a bunch of "rulebook" officials who would not know a real game if it hit them in the face.
BTW, coaches make these rules. Officials have almost nothing to do with what rules the NCAA creates.
