You can't officiate advantage/disadvantage with a rule book citation.

Exactly what is a disadvantage?

What they're probably saying is too many officials are passing on too many fouls because they're not recognizing the disadvantage that is caused.

I think Camron's point is that disadvantage is a judgement call. Iow, there is no quantitative measure available to us.

And he extends his point saying that in KY, the higher-ups want the officials to tighten their judgement as to what disadvantage is.

But I could be wrong.
