On the contrary. If the "gorilla arm" is not enforced, the rule will never be identified as being a problem.

The way to get the rule changed is to enforce the rule precisely, exactly, and every single time. Every single time. Then the coaches squawk and get attention.

And the squawk will be loudest when some team's "Ace," who's been allowed to "swing away" all season long by his local association, balks in the winning run in the State Championship.
