Players adjust well when the game is consistently called. Players have a hard time adjusting to a pair of refs that are calling two entirely different games, because they 1) don't usually pick up on the differences for a while, and 2) can't be guessing as to when and where a call will come from.
I am somewhat surprised to se the first two responses, because it seems that I have seen a lot of adjusting going on from experienced refs. Just my view from the bench, obviously. I can understand why you don't want to adjust, but it sure makes it hard when we ot partners who aren't on the same page.
