By rule, A/D applies to contact in determining whether it's a foul. Violations don't require advantage or disadvantage to be called. Line calls, illegal dribbling, traveling, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, etc., do not require advantage.
Frankly, at the high school level, I'm probably going to call this if I see it. Below that, I'll talk to the kid.

That is how I was told to apply Ad/Disad. However, i was a bit stunned by other threads implying they would let violations go based on adv/disadv. To me, this could make adv/disadv a bit too arbitrary in its application.
