The CE rules are not meant to be "fair," per se. Bob Jenkins says it better, but they're essentially designed to give both teams an incentive to try to prevent them as well.

A coach allowing a CE to continue in the hopes of benefiting is, essentially, eating a box of chocolates. He doesn't know what he's going to get.
