This is not necessarily true. Many officials I know are big fans of following the path of least resistance. The only flagrant personal foul I ever called, my partner was over inbounding the ball while I was at the table. I killed the play. I thought the signal had been obvious, if not the play itself. When I told him what the call was, he was incredulous: "You have to fill out that paperwork!"
