I'm saying that there are at least a dozen penalties by rule on every single snap of the ball, but the rules aren't that black and white and officials make the decision on what degree of offense is going to be flagged. If we went with the black and white appraoch there would literally not be a single snap without a flag, heck you could flag holding somewhere on the line every single play.
Penalties are subjective. You have no idea whether or not this is a call missed by the official or a play that the official deemed to not be worthy of a penalty.
