I'm flattered. This is the first 4-page discussion that I've read from start to finish, and I'm amazed.

It seems obvious that there are 2 groups of officials, ones that apply the rules by the letter, and ones that apply rules by their own interpretation. Too much of either extreme is dangerous for the game. Coordinators and assignors generally find officials that officiate to their liking. And generally, the higher the level of the game, the more interpretation is encouraged.
