They technically did let us know about this at the beginning of the season. The wording of the rule hasn't changed in 3 years, actually. So theoretically we've all knowingly broken the rules about it for two years now. It's not the GDC's fault that niether the teams, GDC, or inspectors thought to put everything together into this specific scenario with a question and this specific ruling. The GDC ruled correctly, and stayed within the realm of what the Q&A is for ... so dear God let's hope for an update out later today, as those are the only things that can change a rule rather than interpret it.
