As stated in the rules clinic, the intent is to speed up the game in respect to getting the replacement into the game in a timely manner. Im not defending the rule, just pointing out some states emphasis the time being spent on player replacement, not an additional timeout. The coach can still talk to the other 4 players, but he/shes doing it from half way across the court.
Not sure why it wasn't on the website yet, but I'll follow-up.
