I do not think the a goal is to be taken so literally that you only focus on the actual number. I think the goal is just that a goal to try to not call or over call the game where you are not adequately calling the right things. Heck in many cases we do not even control how many plays would be potential fouls. Shooting 3s or jump shots often lead to less fouls just like the more the ball goes in the hole are likely fewer opportunities to call a foul. But nothing wrong IMO in having a goal. That goal does not mean you will always accomplish them, which is why a lot of officials strive to call things that are obvious.

Peace
