Don't you think that is kind of the point of POE #1, to rely on the text of the books rather than on other officials? Isn't it the experienced officials, and their application of the rules what...

JR doesn't use language like, "for the most part, all things being equal".

I agree with him--that appears to be the rule as written. It just seems a little harsh to nail A1 for interference on his own dunk if we don't think he benfitted from the grasp.
