The "all but one" principle is not actually a rule, but rather a guideline for officials in determining where the ball should be spotted following an offensive foul. The principle states that all fouls are penalized from the basic spot EXPECT a foul by the offense that occurs behind the basic spot.

First, to clarify what the "basic spot" is:

  1. If the foul is prior to the snap or during a loose ball, the basic spot is the previous spot.
  2. If the foul occurs during a run, the basic spot is the end of the run.
  3. On a dead ball foul or a touchback, the basic spot is the succeeding spot.

The principle states that a team should be awarded only the distance that would have been gained without the assistance of a foul. Therefore, an offensive foul behind the basic spot is the ONLY type of foul that is penalized from the spot of the foul. All others are penalized from the basic spot (i.e., "all but one.")

Why is football called football?

Because it's one of the world's many football codes: association football (soccer), rugby football, Gaelic football, Australian rules football, and American/gridiron football. All of them except soccer allow use of the hands in open play. American football began as a kicking-oriented game. It wasn't until the first American colleges to play football met and standardized their rules, based on the English rugby code, that kicking played less of a role in the game. In fact, kicking remained a primary strategy until the forward pass was legalized in the early 20th century.


Is the rule of universal introduction necessary to predicate logic derivations?

It depends what you mean by "necessary". There is a choice of different systems for (classical) predicate logic, but they all give the same results. Universal introduction is certainly a valid principle in predicate logic, so the question is: Does universal introduction have to be one of the basic rules of the system? The answer is no. It can be a derived principle. It is even possible to introduce "for all" as a derived symbol, and only have "there exists" in the basic system. The basic system would have a couple of rules controlling "there exists", and from these rules universal introduction would be a derived principle.
