How do I explain my thinking on this post-turkeyized day?

Arghh..

Ok.  Here's my attempt!  The apparating would be the same label of spell
(transfiguration, DA, etc) as the summoning spell.  If you summon someone
you'd be forcing them into apparating. Since apparating is illegal without a
license, and as Hermione puts it so repetively, no apparating in Hogwarts,
perhaps personal summoning isn't allowed either.

(Yes, I am trying to find things to back up my view!  I'm pulling them out
of the turkey....)
