...well I'm 38 and have watched Bball as a ritual since I can remember, and have NEVER seen 3 seconds called that I can remember! That should say something about 3 seconds!

NEVER (in caps nonetheless)?? Rather strong assertion for a call I've observed in basketball many times in my 45 years. Then and now regardless of the level of play. Not a priority call? Maybe, but I would argue that camping out gives the offensive player a definite advantage by being able to shoot from the highest percentage area on the court and, be in one of the most advantageous areas on the court for a rebound or tip in/put back. I'm not trying to be argumentative with you but I think there is some measureable water underneath what I'm asserting here.
