Are referees goldfish?

They had this new edict at the start of the season regarding dissent and waving imaginary cards and stuck by it, more or less. Then they forgot about it and have to be reminded about it again?

They might have stuck with it a bit longer this year but they do the same thing at the start of every season. They highlight or change some rule, make a show cracking down on it for a few weeks then promptly forget all about it.
