The rule does apply the "SHALL NOT" to the judge who "[is] assigned to any judicial case". I judge case 3140 FALSE and case 3141 TRUE.
For each of these cases, I intend (with 2 support) to request reconsideration of its judgement. The literal reading behind these judgements blames the judge for something out of eir control; the less literal reading ("the assigner of judges SHALL NOT assign judges") avoids that problem, and is reasonably obvious to infer.
