Hypothetical what-ifs and extreme examples gauge the clarity and comprehensiveness of the written rules. We see this all the time here on the Forum, especially in regard to testing the limits of high school rules (where we can't even get a definition of "opponent" in regard to distracting a free thrower).
As usual, you miss the point. You commented about not knowing NBA rules. My point is there is a "common sense, know it when you see it, we're not going to debate every miniscule possible detail" aspect to NBA rules enforcement that you could never align with.
