New Interpretation Regarding "Definite Knowledge"

Worse case scenario somebody loses a 10th of a second. In anybody's book the tenth is a negligible amount.

What's the difference if it was caught or tapped? The clock should have started as soon as the ball was touched. In both situations, I would say you take the same amount of time off the clock regardless if it was caught or tapped.
