Lets say east had bid 1NT pass pass pass 180 and a clear bottom when everyone in 3NT or 4S on 27 hcp - Is that fair? Or if west had 3 hcp and 3NT - 3 ...another example of a clear bottom. Why are the laws still like this? All because west made pass out of turn - what a crime that deserves a zero? :-)
