re: Why don't they call obvious intentional fouls intentional?

For most of the game you don't want to rack up fouls because you'll put the other team in the double bonus and risk having your guys foul out.

You're missing the point. You sub in shitty players to hack the poor FT shooter. They don't care how many fouls they get and they don't care about double bonus. The poor FT shooter will be taking the shots and that's the goal. Each possession starts/ends with this hack throwing up a brick or two. I hate it and wish it was intentional fouls.
