My point earlier was not that I don't care what he sees, only that I can't know for 100% certainty what he can see, and neither can you.

I can have an idea. I can make an educated guess, but I can't know for sure.

And neither can you.
The point is that I strive to ascertain what my partner can see and is officiating, you have stated that you don't even bother to include that in your officiating. You have advocated just seeing a play in someone else's primary that you think needs a whistle and going right ahead and making a call.

You need to learn a great deal about "partner awareness." Part of that is well described by this poster.

Perhaps that's what allows me to be selective about what I call, especially out of my PCA, unlike you.
