Interesting.

It's not so obvious to me. I wish Bad Zebra could share the frame by frame replay. I stopped the clip and #12 clearly contacts the ball first. Can't tell if she gets the arm after that but I'll take BZ's word that there was a foul.
But I think it's still important to referee your primary and the L should not have had a whistle on this. It looks like the L reported the foul who on the player who did NOT commit what you call the obvious foul and since it's right in front of the C and the L is 40 feet away, she should have deferred to to the C to report since the play was right in front of her.
Sometimes you can be right and still be wrong.
