I'm with you Mich
This goes slightly contrary to my understanding. I felt the rule was so the catcher could get his gear on and thereby minimize the delay between half innings. It doesn't speed up the pitcher but it might offer some protection so the pitcher doesn't collide at a base, or slide and jam their fingers, etc.
Rest??? I hesitate at that... although these two players do carry the greatest share of the activity.
The rules as quoted by Mike do seem to spell it out rather well.
