I agree with the group about what the rule says,
It was July 2005 in Columbia MO, I've moved twice since then and had some sacramental wine, but I remember the interpreter explaining something like, "The purpose of the special enforcement is to allow the offense to keep any yardage they gain by completing a pass when there is roughing. To take away that yardage as a result of a subsequent turnover violates the intent of the rule."
I agree with mbyron about the letter of the law, but I am sympathetic with the interpreter's spirit of the law.
