What you did previously with your first association was an alteration of the actual correct procedure.

I know - totally bizarre. It's one of those things where, despite the fact that I've read the most recent Official's Manual multiple times, and I possess the 04-05 NFHS PowerPoint update (which only discusses long-switching in 3-person), I was certain in my head that it was a Fed mechanic.

I guess I'll start this question in the same thread now, just to see if it's been discussed before (I can't find anything in thread-searching): What is the logic behind this, when it is not the mechanic in 3-person? I'm not just complaining, as it may sound (and I am complaining, don't get me wrong) - I'm truly interested in why this has not been changed, when it is different in 3-person.
