As far as I'm concerned, again, absent an intentional foul, or flagrant foul, the multiple foul rule is a "test question" rule. I called a "fist violation" a few years ago and took a lot of grief from my colleagues

I have never called a 10 second FT violation, but I was in a game where it was called. I still give the guy crap about it today when I see him.
That being said it was a solid violation call on the part of my partner. I think he gave him about 15 seconds and the coach gave his player crap about taking so long. His routine was very unusual where he walked away from the line and faced the other end of the floor while still in the circle and paused and then came back to the line to shoot. So I agree, I probably would call one of these long before I ever think to call a multiple foul.
