True, but we DO have rules and interps that exactly cover this situation. If you use Rule 10 more than once every 10 years or so, you're overusing it and making it a crutch for your lack of rules knowledge. Rule 10 lets you do what is right when an airplane crashes into the CF fence during a play ... or when play ends and you somehow have 5 runners on 3 bases and no one can find the ball.

Obviously, considering that the ENTIRE POINT of this conversation was how to handle a situation where an umpire calls IFF in a non-IFF situation.
