My answers:

1. Never. Players play, umpires umpire. Let coaches coach.

2. No. Both are prerequisites. To bake bread, you need both flour and an oven.

3. Rarely. How can you be certain that all the elements of interference were present when your partner, whose call it was and who had a better view of it than you, didn't call it? The chances are better that you will get it wrong than your partner, and the egg on your face will smell rotten.

4. Yes.
