Looking for a Rule Reference

Where's the rule backing for this, as opposed to waiving B6 in as we wait for A6?

There was an old ruling several years ago that instructed the official to hold all other subs until the one entering for the player directed to leave reported and then to bring them all in at the same time. I'll have to search for this, but I definitely remember it.

The current rules permit any subs to enter prior to the one coming in for the player directed to leave. There is now no need to make them wait.

I do believe you are correct, and I would like to thank you in advance for climbing up into my attic to research it,.

Well at least I can now understand the genesis of my understanding.
