Is that what you're thinking of? I admit that seems heavy handed, especially since crews around here always have a book (whether they follow the rest of this prescription I don't know).
But it's misleading to say that this threat applies to every mechanic in the book. It's just for this one provision — and I would guess it's the one the coaches fought most for.
