I think both rules committees (but particularly Fed) need to take a firm stance that committing rules infractions, fouls or violations, to gain any kind of an advantage should not be tolerated. Then, give the officials tools to deal with it.
Fouling is part of the game at the end. Those who wish to stop it are asking for more than they really want. See all the previous attempts at encouraging more intentional foul calls at the end of games. All disastrous.
