This evaluater was talking about being consistent as a crew.

Advantage/disadvantage means there can be considerable contact without a foul called. Can also mean that a small amount of contact is a foul because of the effect on the play.
I think that games take on a certain feel or character and the thing is you don't want to make a call or pass on a call out of line with how the game is being called.
This is the art of officiating and it's easier said than done.
