So you let a player get away with something and this approach works (rather well) for you, but only
sometimes?
So other times it has worked only "ok", "passable"??
Let me pause for a sec...
Sometimes ... do you mean less than most times?
What if this retaliation (purposely missed second foul) is more severe than the instigating contact? Do you call it? Do you ignore it? If you call it, is the bar now not set somewhere that you don't like it?

So above you said to let contact go, possibly significant, and here you're saying to call ticky tack fouls?

Maybe the NFHS doesn't feel this way. If they did, one could argue that there is no need for a double foul. If there is jostling that is illegal and so near each other in time, ding 'em both. That tells them that can't initiate this contact,
nor retaliate.
