The only time that you make adjustments is if you haven't been consistent in calling contact. You need to adjust so that you are maintaining your consistency. That's what they're telling you. And that's exactly what Tony, Daryl and myself, amongst others, have been saying also.

If you're consistent, the foul count is a non-factor in the game.

Iow, you do not look to call any borderline contact fouls just because of a disparate foul count if borderline contact hasn't been previously called.
