It's the whole thing that I have a problem with, not the verb "turn".
I really can't make head or tail of it.  What's it for?

A new CFJ can always be called while the Notice is being prepared or
in transit.

Hmm.  In that case we'd want to require a Judge to be assigned to CFJ
1600 before any others.  Perhaps that should be part of a Notice of
Rotation: a newly unturned Player must be assigned to the cited CFJ.
That would enormously reduce the scope for abuse.

Another way to express it: assigning a turned player has the side effect
of unturning everyone else.  That could even be made implicit.

I think the situation is rare enough, and by its nature confusing enough,
that the risk of further confusion is greater than the benefit of more
accurate TfA.  We are only talking about *unintentional* TfA violation,
remember.

I think it's better in that it makes it clearer that assignments to
turned players are valid.
