Sometimes those who know it best are the worst choice to explain, because so much is obvious to them.
That is also why we find so much ambiguity in cases, RS, and rules themselves.


Also, why my wife has trouble understanding me.

Okay. I clicked on the link and read the article, at least as much as I could without a membership, and let me tell you, there was nothing in the article that would ever make me think of getting a membership to officiating.com. Not only does it contain the factual errors already mentioned, but it is also poorly written.

If you are trying to sell people on parting with money for a membership, you really need to feature articles that have, at the very least, been edited for grammar, style and content.
