When one has questions about rules, one needs rule citations which can be consulted. There is no substitute for looking up and reading these things for yourself.

Proof is obtained by going to the reference source.
If this was October you might understand your point. But this is June in the middle of the summer. New rulebooks are not published in June. Not everyone owns a smart phone or some kind of device to download an app or even knows how to do that on any level. Depending on where he is he might not get a rulebook until October and any real training until that time as well. I work with newer officials all the time by running a class for an organization and running a New Officials Workshop for the IHSA at a yearly Official's Conference and new officials are often not aware of a lot of things until they are informed. He asked two questions on a forum, he did not commit a crime.
