I disagree that this is the intent of the rule.

And I disagree with you and agree with BZ. The 5-second rule was a natural progression from a line of rules designed to keep the game from being actionless. The time periods in different forms went from 30 seconds to 10 seconds to 5 seconds since I've been officiating, but it's been the same rule in different forms and the intent of the rule has always been to keep action in the game.
If you don't believe me, I'll commission MTD Sr. to undertake a mission to Mt. Attic.
