Could you then please explain exactly what the difference is between what is "obvious" and what is "not obvious" is when it comes to a palm/carry? I just want to know what criteria that one should use to either call the violation or ignore the violation....bearing in mind that both are violations no matter what.

Please, let me...
...a palm in the back court with no defensive pressure is not obvious. The baseball guys have a term for this type of call - it's a F you call.
However, if A1 palms the ball to beat his defender on a drive to the basket...THAT'S an obvious call.
It's very simple, once you own the magic decoder ring.
