In my experience, most HS officials do not rotate enough, but making blanket statements that rotations need to occur every time such and such happens, especially something as insignificant as the C taking a few steps in either direction encourages unnecessary rotations that are more likely to put the crew in a bad situation than under rotating would have.

It's not really ridiculous. Our pregame is C, and L taking into account every single thing you just said. It's not just a blanket philosophy based on randomness. It's a nonverbal cue based on all these things.
