When the UCI grants approval for something, shouldn't the UCI itself take into account both its explicit rules and any infringements of implicit rules?

Is there no way the body that writes the rules can think of any and all the possible permutations before granting approval to a commercial entity who take that approval and will go on to expend significant resources manufacturing and marketing the product?

The UCI have mentioned that they are going to have a look at the POC Tempor helmet. Why does it take them 12 years to address possible violations of implicit rules? Why has it taken almost two years of use for them to decide to ban the Spec head sock?

Amateur hour in Aigle, it is.
