Art,
Maybe it is picky. But, it's required because the requirement to touch all bases is not excluded. Are you really asking umpires to ignore this rule and every other rule that we might think it too picky? What you think is too picky might be different than what I think is too picky - what do we do with that? And if that's the case, why have a rule book 'cuz we don't have any standards if that's what we do. So, maybe it is best that we umpires do not decide which rules to ignore and enforce them all - regardless of the sport.
