The reason for rules and the Decisions on the Rules was to get everyone who plays the game to do so within the same framework. This is one of very few sports where the honesty of the player is uppermost and where players call infractions against themselves. In the case where the club is not grounded and the ball moved and the player has not taken his full address position, there is no penalty. However, even if his club is not grounded and he has taken the full address position and the ball moves, he has been deemed to have caused the ball to move and will be penalized accordingly.

If you watched this year's Open Championship, you saw what a lot of the guys were doing (not grounding their clubs to avoid a penalty). If the ball moved after address, it’s a penalty.

The rules leave no room for interpretation...like in every other sport. If the ball moved it's a stroke. Black and white. If that rule changes then you're gonna have instant replay initiated in this sport too. "Did I ground my club or not? That’s the thing about golf.

I don't think many will be changed though. Some golf rules like that can be a little annoying. I don’t think many will be changed though.
