I take all of this with a fine grain of salt.

Whether we agree or not is really not relevant to what we do. Coaches might say these things but they often come with conditions.

Sure they want us to protect the shooter, but the minute we call something "cheap" in their opinion then we are not doing our job. Honestly, who cares what coaches want. If we are doing our job, our job is to work the game not worry or be consumed with their wants. Coaches often do not even read POEs or rules changes and we can be 100 right on what we are asked to do and they are totally unaware of what our job is or what we have been asked to do by people that are in charge of officiating.

Peace
