Player and coach opinion are what I'm mostly interested in and would assume you are correct and no one gives a shit... it's no different than taunting your friends while playing video games.

I assume they don't want things to escalate from a finger point to defender pushing CEH out of bounds, then for animosity to spill over later into a dirty hit or something. But, then come down hard on people who have problems with proportional response.

Hockey has the same issue with trying to de-escalating things in the playoffs... they don't call all the BS during play,, but then will call a good hockey hit because helmets touched, but you can put a guy in a headlock and bang his head on the ice after a whistle.

The NFL is even more jacked up, it seems... throwing people out of the game for two taunts.
