True, but there's a huge difference in terms of calling/not calling violations and giving a foul to a player who, by rule, doesn't deserve it. A player can be called for an endless number of violations in a game but (s)he only gets five personal fouls. If they get one because we kick a call, hey, it happens sometimes because we're not perfect. If they get one because we're knowingly misapplying a rule, that's neither right nor fair.
