NOT in the definitions and NOT in 8-7. My point is these books don't explain this "look-back rule."

Hmmm...
What is the title of Rule 8-7?
Would you feel better if Art.1 started out with, "This rule will be in effect when..."
They started the rule by telling you when it applied, and then defined the responsibilities of the runners (Art.2 - 3), the responsibilities of the B-R (Art.4) and the penalty for violating the rule (PENALTY), plus an EXCEPTION clause. What more do you want?
