Unfortunately a lot of officials in my state think that if we don't ask, we can't enforce.
Of course they believe a lot of other things too. Like how referees are 'supposed' to stay opposite the table during the national anthem, lineups, etc. Which the mechanics manual alludes to during the pre-game
warmup, but does not specify where officials should stand after the warmup.
