First of all, that is what we are paid to do, make calls based on our judgement. It really isn't difficult at all, in most cases, to decide whether or not a play could have been made. There are those rules in every rule code of which I am aware that ask us to make this type of decision.

Never insinuited we don't make alot of judgement calls in a game. But this is the only one I can think of where we have to judge a player's ability.
