I still say a signal does not make it a foul. I still have never read in black and white anywhere, other than this forum, that the preliminary signal is what makes this ridiculous double foul call unavoidable.

I still believe the reason for this case is to make sure officials use the proper mechanics - it should be the primary official's call, and other officials need to not signal/make a call. The officials screwed up by not using the proper mechanics, so what happens? Messy solution, but doesn't necessarily favor one team over another. The same with correctable errors - they should never happen if officials follow correct mechanics and procedures. If they don't, then there's the somewhat messy rules and cases to follow. What's the purpose of making it kinda messy? To make sure we do it right the first time.

Here are our options for this case play:
1. It refers to officials who report fouls without knowledge of each other (odd, I know, but I've actually been there). 2. It refers to officials who are obstinant and refuse to give ground. (do you really think they'd write a case play to encourage this behavior?) 3. It means what everyone here says it does. 4. ???

Um, yea, it's a foul call. What's the point?

The block-charge preliminary signal (or verbalization) is only binding in this specific situation. That's it, that's the list. It's only binding because of this case play. It's very narrow.
