I just think we're going to give some people the wrong idea when we use that phrase. It's overly simplistic.
Well said.

I agree totally, and that is, at least in my circle of friends, exactly what a game disruptor is defined as, which is a whistle that was not WORTH blowing. This play in my opinion is one of those game disruptors, unless otherwise violent and/or ugly.
