You have a group of experienced officials who are trying to explain why this is not reviewable and that could possibly change in the future. A more logical response would be, "OK. I don't necessarily agree with it, but I understand it. I do hope they change it in the future."

The problem is that the reason that has been given makes absolutely zero sense.
