There is absolutely no such rule, and it irritates me when people continually make such a statement. I guess that I would have to classify this as a pet peeve of mine.
This really comes down to people skills. I'm not asking that any official allow an AC to behave in an unsporting manner, but there is certainly nothing wrong with one politely asking a question or for a clarification or a ruling.
Please don't be one of those officials who treats the ACs as subhuman. They have a way of becoming HCs some day and your relationship with them will be a lot better if you have been respectful of them in the past.
