I don't think it's that complicated. Basically in each sport there are ticky-tack, 50/50 calls that are game changing.

All the refs have to do to swing the game a possession or two is make a bad call or two at the right moment. For the NBA it's putting a key player in foul trouble.
I'm not sure what they do as far as baseball.
Allen Iverson exposed this long ago.
Exactly. Balance of game flow & desired outcome are controlled through refs. Every sport.
There's no "officiating" that's worse than that in pro hockey.
