Breaks between sets?

Theoretically I agree, but I guess that for all practical purposes, it depends on the logistics? How long is the break between sets? Are players allowed to leave the playing area?

Say there's a 2 hour dinner break scheduled between sets - how on earth would you be able to control this?

And if computer analysis is not allowed, I would think that discussions with friendly spectators shouldn't be either. So, when on a break, what are you allowed to discuss with say a player from your own club who's watching the match?

In breaks between games (during a match), there's a lot more to gain by talking to people or consulting a computer or ME table. E.g. "You're behind by 7 points now, so remember to double at the first sight of a gammon!".

In breaks between sets, there's not quite so much to gain (though you might get an idea about current double/take points being early or late in the match - goes for both yourself and your opponent).

So, where should the line be drawn?

Are there any rules on this within USBgF or ABT?
