I'm not on the GDC, but I've got one.

They thought the rule was bulletproof as it was. Then the 10 or so of them turned the game over to 10,000+ high schoolers and as many mentors, who immediately started looking for ways around the intent of the rule by using the letter of the rule.

So the GDC decided that clarification was necessary, and issued it.
