Each official has to assess their individual path/career/journey and decide if crossing the line is for them. I just don't think one size fits all.

Just my opinion.

You should consider expanding your definition of brotherhood.

Just consider it.

Just saying.

A lot of us take the approach that we are the "third" team out on the field/court/diamond and our crew members are the only friends we have out there. So to step on them for short glory as JRut said is pretty damning to ones character.
