Playing to wrong match length

In Response To: Playing to wrong match length (Phil Simborg)

"If the players or the TD catches the error while the match is in progress, again, I would leave it to the TD to decide if it is fairer to a) finish to the wrong score; b) finish to the correct score; or c) start the entire match over. Any of those three choices might be fairest depending on the score and cube action and position on the board. My "default" would be to have them finish to the wrong score, as that would give the fairest result. However, if the players were playing to a longer score than has been set, and their match is holding up the event or the next round, I would give stronger consideration to shortening the match or even declaring it over if one player had already reached the shorter score. If either player is unhappy with this, too bad, as it was both their responsibility to make sure they were playing to the correct score. "

I am confused about your rules philosphy now. I thought you wanted things to be clear cut so that everyone would know and agree what the rules are. But your comments above don't seem to fit that idea.
