I think that that's the point of about 25% of the threads, and posts, on the Forum. A really good official has to know, and fully understand, almost every single one of all rules, but it doesn't end there. That really good official must also know when, and how, to apply those rules, keeping in mind the intent and purpose of the rules, as stated by the NFHS. Lots of wiggle room there. Reconciling the rules, and the intent and purpose of those rules, is not an easy task. Not only does it vary from one area to another, but it may also vary within a particular area. That's part of the challenge of becoming a really good official.
