I think your observation is correct. A more skilled team can take more contact without being put at a disadvantage.
Last night I had a number of plays where I was slow on the whistle -- that slowness let the better player finish his play. On the other end that contact would knock the player off balance and I'd have to call the foul.
I don't see anything wrong with this -- completing the play and scoring should be considered a better outcome than me stopping the game and calling a foul.
