I am really tired of hearing about fairness. A technical foul is a major infraction of the rules. For over 100 years the final part of the TF penalty was a free throw awarded to the team that shot the TF free throws. Today the rules are more complex than they were forty or fifty years ago because of this ill-conceived notion that the rules must be fair.
