Perhaps, if whenever NFHS games are universally managed by 6, then 7, then 8 field officials technology will have advanced to support a possible 9th (aerial official-AJ) that will float (either in person, or by drone) over the field of play, so that even one-in-a trillion possibilities will have documented rule and mechanics coverage.

Likely, until then, we'll have to continue relying on the common sense and skill of whomever the 4, 5, 6 or 7 assigned to the game are able to provide.
