That's true about 95% of the time. However, there are some times when you need to make that foul call even if the "right team" gets the rebound. Having a feel for the game is key.
If you have a game that is starting to get a little squirrely and the rebound foul is hard enough to possibly lead to some frustration, you might need a whistle.
No game is exactly the same. Officials need to be able to see the whole picture in the game, not just the single play that is happening at the time.
