Does that make a difference in your original answer?
1) Advantageous contact = illegal contact
Marginal contact = a judgment call as to whether the contact was illegal or incidental
It's that simple, bainsey.

2) The original answers do not apply to this situation because this situation in no way resembles your original situation. In your original situation, YOU told us the contact was illegal. That means there was NO judgment needed on our part. Illegal contact is a foul.


You're not offering clarity at all imo. Instead, you're putting forth 2 very different situations for comment.
