"illegal move" too broad of a rule here?

In Response To: Ruling Question (Bob Koca)

It's interesting that a play which could NEVER be legal regardless of what the dice could ever show is lumped in with the more typical misread/mismove situations. That doesn't take care of your examples, but it does pertain to Bill's initial post.

Another similar situation occurs when a player puts his own checker on the bar.
