It would help (My opinion.) that no changes be made after Week 1 events, unless safety related. Sometimes there are a lot of bad feelings generated by these decisions.

The GDC members are typically only brought into the picture when a call is flat out wrong or when there is question about the intent of a rule. When the refs cant determine the exact meaning of a rule as it applies to the situation, if there is a GDC member nearby they will often consult him. But those are the only 2 times I have seen a GDC member step in.
