I have met you and I can testify to the board that this guy is a quality official who cares.
BTW, the reason for the successive TO prohibition is to prevent a coach from burning all of his TOs in an attempt to ice a free-thrower who was fouled while attempting a buzzer beater. In the appropriate situation, a coach might figure, what the heck, if he makes the free throw we lose the game, and I can't take the TOs home with me, so I might as well use them. So we would end up standing around for five minutes blowing a horn. Just silly.
