I disagree. Feelings have nothing to do with it. Neither does disadvantage.

The rules proscribe certain actions of players with respect to each other in the interference and obstruction rules. Our feelings on whether a player has a disadvantage, whether or not it was caused by reaction to another player, should have no bearing on our calls.

Perhaps you misspoke, or did not exactly mean this the way I am reading it, but taking you at your written words, I disagree.
