I'm glad I'm not the only one that has this problem. :D

Life's much nicer when you stop agonizing over these things and just go work games.

Took me 25 years (of my 31) to get there, but I couldn't possibly care about rulebook mistakes anymore.

No agony at all here. I have just always found it odd.

The only thing I might have done differently is to ask my partner what was the result? Then if they told me they had decided it was a "controlled tap" then I might have let it go. If they told me something else, I might still have had the conversation. A lot too would have been based on how well I know and respect my partners. Some partners I just know that it would not matter or that they discussed the right things. It would likely be a play I would discuss after the game or at halftime if it took place in the first half for more clarification.

Peace
