Some rules are not perfectly clear so [it is my belief] the rules makers defer to the judgement of the official. Besides knowing and using the rules, judgement seems to be the only hammer we have.

So to answer your question, surely it's judgement. The amount of time they get should be measured by the official's definition of "ample" or "nuff" time.
