I don't think its just a bunch of "fans on the internet" ... lots of people think it could have been a potential disaster.
Well from how I read the wording Feaster had a slamdunk case ("a team's list"). Didn't really understand the position of those who thought we'd have to waive him. Daly's off the cuff response seemed strange to me.

Then when you step back from the wording and look at the intent of the rule that also supports Feaster's position. That is where the part about trading the player and not having to waive them came into play.

I didn't see anything that supported the idea that we've have to waive him except Daly's off the cuff quote which he did not seem to support later on.
