This also potentially puts all 3 officials on the same side of the court for a period of time. I'd prefer to have the T flex opposite table side for the throw in, leave the C at the table and allow your new L to be opposite table side as well.
In college this probably doesn't matter as much because the C would report and remain the C, so no matter what your T and L can hold. Is this correct?

You are incorrect on NFHS mechanics. If C or T opposite calls a foul going the other way with no free throws, that official does not go tableside. You report the foul and slide down the court. It’s not a switching situation, though many times the calling official wants to go all the way up to the table to report, so at that point many officials will just go ahead and switch. But according to the manual, your understanding of the proper switch is incorrect.
