"Conflicts with" maybe. But how do you figure "overrides"?

Both of the rules I posted say "SHALL" (credit a hit or charge an error). If inclusion of the magic word "shall" is the determining factor, what do you do if they all say "shall"?

I'll see your "shall" and raise you another "shall". Two shalls are greater than one!

I know what I would do. Or, wouldn't do, which is give a sh... I'm an umpire and how the official scorer rules it has no bearing on the playing rules I deal with.
