The 'Exception extension' word set 9.6.2 isn't an 'allowance' to make a word
catchable - it's a requirement.  Allowance was afforded by virtue of Table 9.2.
and section 9.6.1.  Removing allowance requires a proposal.

As to what ANS intended one might ask Mitch Bradley - author of CATCH and THROW.
He can't give an official answer but it may end the speculation.
