I'd be hard pressed to find an official who knew this odd ancient time interpretation and called it that way.

The only reason some of us knew about it was if we researched why we got the interpretation wrong on a refresher exam.

If anybody ever called it that way, and it went against the visiting team in a close game, the visiting coach would probably find himself sitting by himself on a very cold bus in the very cold parking lot.
