Scrappy, the WV fight involved an early termination. The officials, in the locker room and thus after their "jurisdiction", decided to eject a couple of players who participated in the fight. The ejections and accompanying suspensions were challenged on the jurisdiction issue. Initially, the court overturned the ejections. They were eventually upheld on appeal, but the fed updated the rule anyway.
That said, this particular change seems more aimed as you suggest, now that I've read it more closely.
