Unfortunately, I think this was exacerbated by a failure to explain the reason for the change in score. It is very important to give a full explanation for such a change, especially when it arises from a rules interpretation. Most of the audience is not familiar with the nuances of the rules and its appropriate to give them a good explanation. We were able to piece most of it together in the stands, but that may not have been true for others.
