That question and assumption can go both ways.
Possessions are valuable and in a 1 point game that possession could have influenced part of the outcome. Now I get your point of view, but it you have an obvious violation, it should be called. I would never advocate a "technical" violation to be just called if you cannot tell how obvious it is.
