I quess that is the definition of the same-difference.
Most coaches will probably tell ya that their biggest concern is, "consistency"

Looking like a robot, standing, kneeling, scissors, having the right color shirt are all pretty things , but they don't mean squat diddly if you can't make consistent calls in a game and consistent interpretaions from one game to the next.
As already stated here, many styles and paraphanalia differed, but the calls and rules enforcement, were consistent.
