No, "obscure" is quite simple; it's a rule that you've never actually seen enforced.

Examples:
10 second free throw count
Goal tending on a free throw = Technical foul
Reaching across the plane during a throwin and fouling the thrower = intentional foul + warning
striking the ball with your fist
multiple foul

Most of these are never called because they hardly ever happen. Some (multiple fouls) happen occasionally but still never get called.
