I think this is a different discussion than how many sleeves a player has on or what color they are, or how many logos are on the headband, etc.
Yes who cares. If you have issues with seeing these numbers, then maybe you need to do a deeper vision test. I can see these rather easily and never ever thought about this. And honestly many of us do not care about sleeves either. We wish those rules were not there and I was outspoken in my area as to why this was even an issue. Why would I care what sleeves someone wears when everyone has a different skin tone and we somehow seem to be OK with that fact. I only even enforce those sleeves and logo rules because the state seems to care about them. But I do not measure any logo and do not split hairs with color if they are trying to match. Your suggestion takes a rule to make something better for you personally and not what is really hard to recognize for everyone. So yes, who cares about this rule as the number is clearly on the uniform.

Peace
