I'm sorry, but to consistently be so wrong on rules references while trying to come off as an experienced ref/assignor working college now? I might buy your college player/rec ref story, but I don't buy the college officiating experience or even the hs varsity experience.
Maybe I'm just crabby today.

Sorry, Adam, you are the soul of gentleness and grace. I was just being flippant and glib, which always gets me in trouble. I'm 50 now, do you think I'll ever learn?
I think it's becoming clear that OS was or is a college player who works rec and intermural ball, and just hasn't realized the depth and extent of the training most "patched" or "certified" officials go through. It seems to me that she ( and I'm assuming now that she is a "she" although she still hasn't actually said so) is starting to realize how provincial her views have been, and she's actually opening her eyes a little. I'm conjecturing that what she's called college experience and hs varsity experience has come from working at tourneys and camps run by her college, and she never realized that that was different from doing "real" games.
Now, OS, it's up to you to support me in this. You are entitled to your opinion about the male practice partner thing, even though we don't agree with you. And I'll defend to the death your right to express yourself based on your experience and thoughts. But you are beginning to see that there is a lot to reffing that hadn't been apparent to you, aren't you? Eh?
