I agree with the rule change, however I foresee more butt scooting and forced standups

Better keep those knees in contact with the ground then.

I just assumed this rule was put into place to resolve the “Dustin Poirer” tactic of bending over, but touching the ground with his hand to avoid punishment to the head.
