My problem with this rule is not more so the fact that you can't have them. My problem the fact that I have actually been to an event where I was told to remove the glasses I had (understandable, but I grabbed what I could), then the Head Ref at said event was wearing heavily tinted glasses.

I was bothered in the sense that the Safety Judges/Competition personnel actually didn't enforce this among everyone who attended the event, volunteer, or spectator.
