I watched a video recently in which Corey Deuel faced a doubtful shot. A ball near his cue ball was in the way of his shot, or it wasn't (pick one). He called for Ken Shuman to come and clean the cue ball, and after a bit of negotiation Ken put down his marker, picked up Jojo and wiped it clean and replaced it. Corey then took the shot and made the ball. I believe Justin Hall was the bereaved.
Corey did wrong to make the request and to put Ken on the spot. Ken did wrong to let him get away with it. Suppose Justin had disputed the shot - either before or after. Would Ken then be responsible to make a ruling on it? What's the rule? The situation should never have developed as it did. But it did.
