No, it is used as a defense. Too many morons believe Commissioners and UICs are full-time, paid positions and expect 24/7 service. When necessary, most UICs & Commissioners do a helluva job.

Two examples.

First: A couple years ago, a local team had a player have a bat kept out of a game by the umpire because it was on the non-approved list. Problem was, there was a one-digit difference in the model #. That player called the local Parks & Rec office around 8:00 am. The issue went from the local P&R to CCress in OKC to the Reg UIC to the State UIC and the local P&R had his interpretation by 8:45 am.

Second: Apparently, there is still a roster issue pending with the Men's C SP East. The manager asked his commissioner for a copy of the roster of the team in question. A message with the request was left for an individual in OKC. That morning some putz (player) for the team sent an e-mail to CC to complain that the commissioner wasn't getting a response from the main office. Within minutes the commisioner got a call from CC wanting to know why someone thinks ASA was not responding to a request.

Everyone have lives outside of ASA and softball and people have a tendency to either ignore or forget that fact.
