My rules knowledge is strictly courtesty of this board. I am really a coach, no reffing other than scrimmages (and then we play by MY rules - my players definitely like your rules better, because I have many more violations in my rulebook than were ever in your book).
I joined a few years back with a simple backcourt question (cause I KNEW everything else), read a few posts, realized there was more to them there rules than I thought, and I never left. These longtime members won't let you slide on "I think" or "logically, you should" - they make you look at real rules. It has been an education for sure. Gives me something to share with my players.
And I would definitely prefer to have a game reffed by a board member, because at least I know they are working on their game and are probably pretty well versed rules, interpretations, and general game management.
