Advantage/disadvantage has been the philosophy used in the NCAA for the last 50 years when it comes to hand checking. And they've used RBSQ for the last 50 years also in the NCAA to determine that advantage/disadvantage.

RSBQ can be summed up as "did the hand-check put an opponent at a disadvantage?"

Same old, same old. Nothing new at all but the terminology. But hey, if someone feels they've discovered the latest and greatest advance in officiating knowledge, who am I to spoil their party? Let 'em RSBQ away to their heart's content.
