• Time limit in Handicap Racing
  I grew up sailing on the Chesapeake Bay in the 70's.  Either the RC shortened the course, abandoned the race before anyone finished, or waited for the last boat to finish.  I suspect now the people on the RC have other priorities.

• Three CV's on a long starting line
  A regular feature of the CIE Optimist Event (International Summer Cup) in France. 400+ boats for a coastal race (yes, you heard correctly!)  SIs in French here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DGqkqE3sk9DocwkCFUjcUmOc4f_A4kFR

• Pondering Rule 3 - Are Race Officers and Organizing Authorities Over-Reaching?
  Careful:
  "they expressly do not have the authority to make these changes"
  is not the same as 
  "they do not expressly have the authority to make these changes."

• Time Limit Expired (TLE)
  in my opinion, is not a suitable answer in such circumstance. However, TLE encourages boats to start and make every effort to complete, which is correct for small single fleets.
