egj13, look at the opposite of this subject. If a college official calls a charge on a secondary defender that is in the RA, how do you think the coach is going to react? How do you think the supervisor is going to react? What if the official just thinks the player should be able to take a charge in the RA? That is not going to go over too well. I think the same is true of the opposite high school rule. The main difference is what many people know/believe to be true about the rules in high school basketball.
I also don't think it is coincidental about consistency across the board between high school officials, college officials and NBA officials. When I think about it, this is the same for almost any product/service I would pay for. The more I am expected to pay, the more I expect in return (quality, consistency, reliability, etc.).
