At least these two responses are hard to implement in hardware.

Understood, I am an official too. Head referee 6 times over the past 3 years, so I understand that sentiment. However it is the team's responsibility to at least read and try to understand the ENTIRE manual BEFORE asking questions that require valuable resources to answer.
Sometimes a little levity helps break the tension in a stressful environment.
I would genuinely like to know of any concrete example where one of the GDC "funnies" caused a team any hardship.
