SafeSport should be circumscribed to adult - youth coaching; and some additional verbiage in their documents could make that happen.

No I agree, I think the point that Dan is making and I'm suggesting is that now "everyone" is *most likely* on the hook for safesport in all likelihood with some of the "vagueness" of the wording. I was more suggesting that it's now on the record that you should/know/care; just as the case in AG doping where the 54 year old grandma who's taking doctor prescribed meds and racing her local po dunk sprint likely also doesn't "care" to follow some "WADA" rules.
ETA: So there is still "vagueness" on who's actually covered and who it can and can't apply towards (it def covers adult coach v minor athlete). Again most people agree Safesport is great for what it's likely suppose to do- keep the adult v minor relationship in check. Where the "fuzziness" occurs is when/if it starts applying to all members. Not just coach vs adult athlete but adult athlete v adult athlete.
