even if it is done repeatedly to prevent a TD, 3 and 10 from the 10 results in 3rd and 5 and half the distance is always better than an automatic first down near the goal line.

Yes, but "unfair acts" is meant to cover things not otherwise in the rules. Not this. Not this EVER.

Not applicable here......No competent official will invoke this in this situation.

This is an unintended (and obviously not thought through) consequence to a bad decision by the rules committee. (removing the AFD for DPI)

Hopefully it will be changed next year.
