RE: Lateral Water Hazards
Yes, makes sense.
But a small complication. The area beyond the lwh was OOB (it was originally owned by the railway authority but now we have owned it for 40 years and have never changed its status.

Although a player who overhit the lwh and bounced back in had the good fortune only to be penalised 1 stroke, the player whose ball remained OOB and was possibly not findable had to pay S&D.

With the LR he would only have the WH penalty of one stroke.

In practice this happened more frequently than the ball coming back into the ditch.

The topic is really rather academic because the ditch has been filled in and the stream diverted.
