24V Solenoids

So, during a post-build season rules read, and I realized that as per R18, the Motors & Actuators chart, that the rules don't allow solenoids that take over 12 volts!

Quote:
Electrical solenoid actuators, no greater than 1 in. stroke and rated electrical input power no greater than 10 watts (W) continuous duty at 12 volts (VDC)
Not only have we been using 24V solenoids to no issue for a couple years now, theres a 24 volt jumper on the PCM!

Can someone tell me I'm suffering from pre-competition paranoia?
