Personal preference on not granting blocks deep under the basket in no different than any of those and as long as you are consistent with your call there is no harm.
Yes, it is. How can it be OK when one official calls the exact same play one way (due to "personal preference") and another calls it completely differently?

Besides -- it's completely unsupported by rule -- how does he explain this to a coach who asks the question, "Why was that a block?"
