IMHO, there is always a holding zone available regardless of the number of umpires on the field. Just because the mechanical instructions do not direct the umpire to to a holding zone does not mean it does not exist.
We are not always be motion. We do not automatically go from point a to point b without observing the unfolding play including the action of all players and partners. Sometimes that needs to be done prior to determining a direction.
As noted, JMHO
