This isn't about incompatible offices exactly - for example if it were the referee that was vacant, anyone could do what I was doing without involving the arbitor. It's more about having an office lie empty that anyone can grab to do the fine-levying for fingers they themselves pointed. I was thinking the fix was adding a "you CANNOT resolve a finger that you yourself pointed, including through deputisation"? -G.
