Duncan, I was trying to clear up the question that 6inch asked about who would be considered "the bad boy" for doing what they would be entitled to do ie look for the ball. Imurg in an earlier posting said that if his playing partner looked when he aced the prov ball he wouldn't play with them again. I was not personally giving my opinion but trying to shed light on how it may be viewed.
Having said that I dont share your view that the prov ball is not to be an "option" as it has to be. The rules are there to be used and either hurt or help you, we get hurt by them often enough and if you can use a rule in your favour I absolutely feel that it is perfectly ok to do so!
"....providing you are content to live with that then you thats fine" strikes me as "personally giving my opinion".
I was giving my reasons for disagreeing with that opinion.
As discussed at length, both players would be acting within the rules; I find it strange that people would believe that one is acting inherently more right, sporting, correctly than the other.
Anyhow, it's not a rules question per se so disagreement isn't an issue
