Well that should certainly end this discussion for all those who follow NFHS mechanics. It should also, at least for those following NFHS mechanics, end the long history of debates we've had on this Forum over the years on this specific topic. May it rest in peace.
Now if we could only get the same closure for the few of us that follow IAABO mechanics? The manual says, "number", not numeral, yet the international interpreter allows officials that he observes to use numerals.
Man, I really hate it that we switched from NFHS mechanics to IAABO mechanics a few years ago.
