Actually is was funny that the guy claimed to be a high school official and did not know a basic rule that he would have to apply. I will admit that I am making a larger point that you tried to suggest that all rules should not be different, but that was not the case in this conversation. And the conversation was more extensive then I mentioned. He literally was claiming you could not apply continuous motion when a player started his motion on the floor or in the manner my partner and me were applying the rules.
And truth be told most of us only have to apply 1 or 2 at most. And if you are doing pro rules an a regular basis, you probably are not doing high school rules most of the time.
