Not here in my little corner of Connecticut it won't, especially in varsity games. Our assigner and evaluators expect officials to adjust to changing game situations, sometimes based on time and score, especially in the last two minutes of a close game. And if one expects to be highly rated in game management, experience and observations of more experienced officials will get you further along than reading all the books in China.
Yes, know the rules and interpretations, but that's just the foundation, a solid foundation, but it's just the foundation.
