I don't work 5-man mechanics anymore but I recall it did at one time, maybe still does have signifigance for the Bjudge key.

Primarily I work R, but on occasion I will work on the wing. Our chapter used to punch back, but we got away from that since counting the backs doesn't guarantee a legal formation. Of course you can use the "I've got 11" from the R but around here that signal means "I've got 11 or less" Maybe there should be a change in rules that will allow 6 players on the line as long as there were no more than 4 in the backfield.
