I think y'all are reading more into Rich's position than he's actually saying. The only real "involvement" with minimum play rules a Little League umpire is expected to have during tournament play is to handle the protest if an MPR protest is lodged before the umpires leave the field.

Umpires are not expected or required to monitor a team's compliance with MPR in "real-time" during the game. Some umpires, acting in the spirit of rules Rich has quoted which implore all league officials, including umpires, to do whatever they can to prevent and avoid protest situations, will "remind" coaches during the game about their MPR requirements.

Handling protests and issuing such "reminders" is about as "involved" in MPR as the umpire gets, though.
