We put our knowledge on the block every game.
We deal with your suggested "blah, blah" every game.
What's the difference? The environment, ... as a protagonist in an educational, close and non-confrontational setting.

My problem is here you have people who learn the rules, and are being told my a referee how he/she (and only him or her) views a game. They are not learning the self-control, the ability to look at a game unbiasedly (although many officials do not learn that as well). They then think that they have some sort of authority and right to question you. I understand that officials have to deal with disagreement every game, but now you're having the other party believe, with justification (in their mind) that they know better.

Literacy and knowledge do not just happen.
They take time.
They require a first letter, a first word.
They need to be available.
They may be ignited by a speaker, a book, a picture.
They are not born of frustration and apathy.
They are not given light in a dark hole.
First there is the spark.
Then, ...it takes time.
