Jewel,
If the team in possession wants a time out, just call it.
Don't overthink this mechanic.

I suppose you're right. I'm used to the level of play where the coach says, "Time out?!? What for?!?! Lindsey, what the heck are you doing?!?!" Trying to be judicious about my response to the player who is committing a very stupid act.
