And there's nothing incompatible about almost any other appearance item. It IS one of the unwritten societal rules (the extent to which depends on the specific area) and you will be viewed differently (and, thus, your umpiring will be judged differently until there's sufficient specific evidence to overcome it) if you have one.
It might not be "logical", but it's true.
