How do you figure a huddle is any better in this sitch? All it does is present the opportunity for an argument on the court. If your partner comes to you in a huddle and says, "Woody, his foot was definitely on the line," are you going to say "No it wasn't"? Do you want to start a testosterone contest out there about who is going to give up their positive info first?
No. You're going to say, "Are you 100% positive?" He's going to say "Yes" (otherwise he wouldn't have come to you), and you're going to say "Ok, two points". How is this any different from the Fed procedure. It's exactly the same except without the words.
Once you pre-game it, "Tweet!! Two!" equals "Woody, you missed that. . . Are you 100% sure? . . . Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you. . . Ok, two points".
