I think this would reduce those darned violations by a good 80% and everyone would be happy. The whole purpose was to keep people going clockwise and not be able to do tricky plane maneuvers around the finish line - both of which this would keep in effect.

Who would complain? The offensive or defense bots? Not likely, as it seems everyone falls victim to this occasionally and it actually slows the game down. Not the refs as it would make their job a ton easier and reduce complaints. Not the fans, so I say let's ask them to do it!
