If it is such a problem, how many times has it been a POE? It may have been a POE at the NF level once with other topics thrown into specific POE. And I believe they changed the language to make the issue a T, but nothing has been commented on since. Rough play used to be a POE every year. We see hand-checking, illegal screens and even traveling every year and at least every other year. Nothing on this topic other than what we talk about here. So if must not be seen as a problem to those on the respective rules committees. Or at least it is not enough for them to totally leave it out for years since they changed some rules language.
