Mostly, I was thinking of the many discussions that occur on this forum, that may never come to a a conclussion, because of the allowance of judgement that is inherent in particular scenarios. I've been in meetings in which "twinkling the fingers" has been stated as a violation of the disconcertion rule, and in others in which talking among teammates, during the free-throw, or raising a hand or hands, arm or arms, is said to be a violation, etc.
I'm comfortable with the judgement of most of my partners, whether they see such actions as a violation or not. And I enjoy the interchange of personal guidelines of judgement that are expressed in these threads.
Sometimes, the judgement of a particular official follows the written info in the Case Book, sometimes it compresses that info, and sometimes it expands it, in his/her application. Still, I enjoy working with a new partner, and noting the nuances of his/her application of the rules and guidelines, just like I enjoy this forum.
