These are teenage and 20-something girls. Pro baseball, football, whatever players make mental errors all the time. Several folks have said that they are experienced. They are, but this is the highest pressure cooker they can go in.
You are heading down a path that has no logic. I, as an NCAA fan who is adding to ratings, questioned as to why we can't reline the field. The rest of this is all your imagination. Try rolling it back to the OP. My question was why the box can't be relined.
How do you think the lines get obliterated in the first place? If it were an accident, then only parts of the lines would be missing! If you were to re-mark obliterated lines, they would be gone as soon as the next lefty slapper batted. No slapping in baseball so it's only the inside and back lines. In FP SB with slappers, its the inside and front lines.
Let's try to put it in a swimming perspective. Why doesn't every swimmer get to swim their qualifying heat in the middle lane where they aren't affected by refracting wakes?
