New positioning of the umpire

I guess  it's a start, but how do they come up with the last five minutes? I feel like the NFL is making a slow progression on dumping this rule.  Although I would conjecture that the last five minutes would be the most dangerous for umps because teams are going to be hustling to come back if the score is close, which could lead to come collisions.
