I'm checking in here a little late, because I've been out having a life. But to me the biggest issue is what it does to my credibility if my partner just overrules me from across the floor. Even if I'm going to automatically change my call when he steps in and talks to me, I want the stepping in and the chance to change it myself. I've had partners overrule me from a distance, and I can tell you the rest of my game isn't worth the effort it would take to wipe it off the bottom of my shoes -- or at least, that's what everyone in the gym thinks. I might as well just go home.
