NBA:
The RA is an area on the court which doesn't allow secondary (help) defenders attempt to take a charge. If a player is located in this area for the purposes of taking a charge, it's an automatic block.
Now there are situations where an offensive foul can still be called...if an offensive player leads with a foot or elbow for example. Also if a play originates close enough to the basket (known as the lower defensive box) then the RA doesn't apply. And the RA also doesn't apply if a defender jumps in an attempt to block a shot.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, given a chance to climb, they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions.
Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
