Personally I wish the rule would go to "DON'T TOUCH THE NET". Don't completely cross the center line. It removes the judgment from the officials and it lessens the risk for injuries.
These rules are a PERFECT example of rules designed for the elite level and not taking into consideration levels below elite players. What an elite player is able to do with their body is much different than what a recreational player can do, but they generally use the same rules.
Thankfully the league I work uses modifications of both the center line and net rules. We follow the HS center line rule and we use the "old" net rule which is contact while playing the ball.
