If the coach is sure he'll get the appeal, why not, just for fun, intentionally walk ten batters? Twenty batters? Keep walking guys until it gets too dark to play and then appeal. How does the scorer account for the fact that twenty-three guys "batted" in one inning and their team got no runs?

Yet another obvious oversight by the Fed. But I agree, with an official interpretation, you have to go along with it if you're the ump.
