I think the hard part is that "commercial" gear is a hard line to define these days. More and more people have various levels of high-end cameras and glass these days which only a decade ago was limited to a much smaller segment. The Forum (formally the Ice Palace) here in Tampa where the Lightning play has rules about length of lens for example in an attempt to limit pro gear. But it doesn't truly provide an accurate limit on pro gear.
My guess is that they left it vague so they can determine on a case-by-case basis in the park when they feel something is too large. But of course, that makes it highly subjective and one CM's definition of "too large" might not be another's idea leading to confusion, frustration and uncertainty on the part of the guest.
