Where does it say that?
Two things I think the brain wizards wants to move away from.
1.) Slowing the game down. Apparently, there was too much conversation going on with the HC that they felt this would help faciliate the game faster and keep it moving.
2.) My reasoning. Dialog with the coaches is becoming a problem. Too much of it is occurring betwen the coach and official after a call. We want to keep the focus on the game and not have so much discussion between these parties. Officials holding a clinic after each call is not what we want either. IOW, I think the coaches where taking advantage of this and was constantly working us because they knew you had to come to them after you made a call. It's the assigners that don't like it. They see a trend and they want to move away from it. I like the move, it's a good chess board move.
What gets me is this and I got to get use to it. The opposite table official is the one that gets replaced. So if you are the C or T opposite the table, you administer the F/T's and lose your Cadillac position.
