The only justification that I can give, and it's not a good one, is that, as far as I know, it's (sounding whistle to end the period) not in the mechanics manual. Maybe it's no longer the case, but back when we were using NFHS mechanics, here in 100% IAABO Connecticut, it wasn't in the NFHS mechanics manual, and I believe that it's not in the present IAABO mechanics manual either. Remember, Connecticut is The Land Of Steady Habits. We do things by the book here in Connecticut. JRutledge would probably accuse us of being "robot like". Guilty as charged. Compared to the rest of the country, we're a bunch of odd ducks here in New England. How often do you guys stop, and ask directions, from a farmer, to an assignment, and are told, "You can't get there from here".
