No. I have pointed out that the law requires BOTH players to act immediately in a tackle,
Whereas the IRB disagree with you. Tackler release first was not a matter of protocol, but a matter of strict application of the Law - at least according to the IRB page I linked to above.
whereas the general protocol is to require the tackler to release first. That situation does not arise with a scrum.
