Every team I played with would always bring out a runner's glove at the change of the inning.

Every? Always?

I'm very leerly of words like that, especially when taking an umpire test.

Yet that fact makes a difference as the runner could not be declared out unless they did so according to your rule citation of 8.7.U.

You can be as "leerly" as you want, I don't care. I think I am a bit more qualified to state what has happened in my life than your are.

Sportsmanship (somebody verbalizing wrong number of outs). Make sure the game is played fair.

If you remember the movie about AIDS with Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks and Denzel keeps bringing up thinking like a six year old... There is our answer.

I'm 100% sure that is what ASA was thinking when they said not to call an illegal pitch when a player is in foul territory.

That may be OK in your little league or some other kind of recreational play. But that is not OK in a real game. Following your line of thought, do you have a "do-over" when a defensive player makes an error and allows a run to score? Or when a runner leaves a base too early, do you reset everything and do that over too?
