Here's the only interesting comment in that article (to me, anyway):

"In a three person crew, mechanics differ on the level. While NFHS/IAABO mechanics still allow the CENTER to officiate their half of the paint ... and CCA mechanics encourage the LEAD to take all block-charges in the paint."

It seems to me that it was easier to change the CCA manual than it was to change the mindset of the officials. Similar to the men going tableside for "one" season and then going back to opposite table after calling fouls.
