When I look back in my career, I recall that games that went to the toilet did so more because of mechanics mistakes than a missed call. Mechanics are a tool to more easily make the right call.
If you're out of position, players and coaches know it. Fans likely too. If you're in position, you are less likely to miss a call. (This is working under the assumption that an assignor doesn't place you in a game that's way over your head.)
I agree with JR that some mechanics should be followed AMAP, and with others, liberties can be taken.
When it comes to the best way to handle a game, I think looking to the top is your best bet. Look at the NBA mechanics in the 70s and 80s. They were much more wild than they are today. The NBA, NFL, etc all refined the mechanics to today's game.
