My state (not my association) expects us to require legal baseballs. They do not expect us to measure the height of the rubber above the plate. So, HS coaches always have the correct baseballs, and we don't worry about the mound height.
It sounds to me like you get what you ask for. If a state expects legal baseballs, they will instruct the coaches and umpires on that fact and they will get legal baseballs. If they don't expect it then coaches will supply whatever they have and umpires will not worry about what is supplied.
It seems evident here that some states don't care about enforcing the legal baseball rule, and therefore umpires don't care.
