"With this rule it seems that the defense gets a license to intentionally try and hurt certain offensive players on 4th downs."
This is an over-statement. The defense has no clue what so ever that they can clobber the runner and their offense will still have 1'st and 10.
Any intentional UC act, as deemed by the official will result in an ejection and each and every player better know that.
Yes, the rule change was significant, but the NFHS recongnized this was the proper action to take.
