I agree with everything you've said gav, including the rosberg smallprint. The rules have always been there, and the fact they haven't needed to use that specific rule recently (that i can remember?) doesn't mean its disappeared. McLaren ignored the rule despite knowing the penalty, and voila. I admit i have found mclarens qualifying situation here to be quite funny though...
