They can never write every possible scenario into the book, but if you understand (not just know) the rules, they don't need to.

I agree with you on your last statements as well. Also that is why there are State and NF Rule Interpreters in the first place. And if we did not have them, we would have more confusion. Now there has been a clarification and most of us will move on. Some still think they have to be right because they do not know any other way to do things.
