Chris Simms on his podcast talked about it.
I hadn't considered it this way, but he said the field is shared by the teams. The endzones are owned by the team. Accordingly the rules are different for the endzones than the field. His position is that the rule is consistent with the rest of the rules for the endzone.
He said he was open to giving the other team the ball at the one yardline.
I guess I agree with all of it. Don't fumble the ****ing football.
