I suspect it was also brought on by the need to give the excellent volunteer refs a big contrast to their extreme workload last year. If I were a ref and went through two consecutive years like 2014, I'd probably not be back again-- at least not as a ref.

The change also gave inspectors a big break, because bumpers. Bumpers consumes a lot of inspection bandwidth.
