It has been beaten to death, but there is no indication the glove "SHALL" be worn anywhere within the ASA rules.
My posts have all been accurate. You can try to justify this all you want, but the rules simply do not support your stance. It seems you are attempting to force the allowance of a mitt or glove at any defensive position into a mandate that a glove be worn.
