The NCAA never ceases to amaze me.

I don't think it's an issue with the NCAA. There has to be some limit on how many games a team can play - and the current limit is what has been voted on by the member schools. The clause allowing the D2/D3 team to treat a game as an exhibition is presumably in there to allow a D1 team to complete their schedule when they need another game or to allow a local matchup of a D1 with a D3, where the D3 is reluctant to have the game show up on its record.

One thing to remember about NCAA rules is that most of them were proposed by the member schools, and almost all have been voted on and approved by the member schools. The NCAA never writes these rules on their own. It's just convenient for schools to blame the NCAA when they run afoul of a rule that they actually voted to implement at some time in the past.
