It also means that just one minor infraction doesn't count at all.  It only counts when a 2nd minor infraction is observed.  The logic of that escapes me.

A special rule provision was made and voted on at the Bureau meeting and the following will become effective this year.  What this means is that for minor errors a 1/2 point deduction is given instead of the “traditional” 1 point deduction.  At the end of the maneuver, if the resulting score is a 6.5, the final score will be rounded up to 7.  The judge can do this automatically or can right down the 6.5 and the scoring program will round the number up.
